AM 16.00 miles Today 7-11 Is our annual Slurpee Run for the East High XC team. It goes like this. We meet at Sunnyside park July 11th, because it is free slurpee day, We race around the area running to 7-11's on the list and try to be the first one back without losing it. We hit 7 stores, run in fill up a 7.11oz cup level with a slurpee, eat it as quickly as possible, watch out for brain freeze, then run to the next store and repeat. The loop this year ended at Liberty Park so we would not have to race back up the hill on 800S. and this was much better. The loop was 7.5 miles. And everyone did so good, Tomy was the champion this year, he can down a slurpee pretty fast. A fun day, but like many on the team, this cured me from eating slurpees until next year. Here's my mileage for the day, ran 2.40 with Taylor around the Sunnyside Block, Slurpee Run 7.5 miles, 3.5 miles around Liberty waiting for runners to finish their run, 3.1 miles back to Sunnyside park and then added to it to bring it to what we thought was 16 even, but gmap-pedometer showed longer. Legs are getting better from the race on Saturday and should be healed up in the next day or so. Fun day. PM 8.50 miles on the Jordan River Trail was only going to run 6, but on the way back I ran into Demetrio show I finished up with him. The bugs are the worst, swallowed or choked on a bunch. Water at two of the underpasses so had to alter normal run a bit. |
