I needed another long run today so I started out along the Bonneville Shoreline trail.  After 6 miles my tendon was hurting so bad I knew it wouldn't work today.  It was really swollen up.  I turned around early and just put one foot in front of the other for a while.  At least it was a beautiful day!

Busy day today with the kids and no time to run at all so it had to wait until 10:30pm.  Ran up through River Heights and Cliffside for an easy 10 miler.  7:45 pace

I flew into the Logan airport and picked up the Utah State football team for the OKC game. That's always a ton of fun!

After the game I headed out for a long run. I am trying to decide if I want to try the TOU marathon since I have an entry from the director, but it's been a battle just to get in the miles the past few months. It's going to be a last minute decision if it happens.

OKC is not a runner friendly city so it was a long hard run, but I did it! Right about 8 minute pace, so pretty slow.
