AM 22 miles at Jeremy Ranch Road.  Met Bill Green an hour earlier than the group got there so we could do 6 Miles first.  Bill is a great masters runner that swam in college and has been setting new PR's all the time.  He will surprise a lot of masters as the years go on.  Temps were cool and it was a good warm up.  We saw a Moose cross the road, that just finished a drink from the stream and was headed for higher ground to have a nice nap in the shade.  The group got there right as we got back so we headed back up the road to the turn around at East Canyon Road.  It got hot on the way back and it has more uphill on the way back.  I had to stay focused to push to the end.  When I got back to the car the garmin was 20.26 and I hate to finish on uneven numbers, anal I know, so I headed more mileage up the paved road towards the club house.  Finished at 22 miles a good round number.  We all got in the creek for 20 minutes after the run it was nice.  Dennis on the way home did find a leach stuck to his foot, a guess that gave Michelle the creeps. 

Next went for a massage which was nice and then to church. 

PM 8 miles Cottonwood Mall Loop from the house.

AM 7 miles with the XC team, cemetary loop and drills in the park.

PM 13 miles on Pipeline and the canyon road.  I got a late start tonight and got to the trailhead of Burch hollow at 8:30 pm.  I knew it was going to be dark on the way back and the shadows make you see things that are not there.  Got back to the car from turn around  and Garmin reads 9.41.  Run up the road until it said 10.67 and turned around, this left me with more than half mile down the canyon past the car before I could head back up to the car. But it did break the hill up in the segments, which was nice.

AM 5 miles with the XC team around the park at SHP.

PM 9 miles with Wasatch Athletics, speed workout.  Normal warm up, 2X800, 2X400, 3X200, normal cool down, Jamba Juice...  

AM 5 miles from SHP on 19th to Sunnyside and back via 1500 East.  Just missed the 7:00 man.

AM 5.00 miles Loops at SHP with some strides and a few hills in the middle.

AM 6 miles warm up and Murray 5K. overall position Masters wise was where I needed to be.  3rd Masters overall second in my age group 40-44.  Last race in that age group.  Higher miles have the legs not turning over fast enough for a 5K.  Need to crank out the mileage the next 3 days of this Holiday weekend.  Time was 18:12

PM 15 miles on pipeline to overlook and back from burch hollow and then up the road about 2.80 miles about 3/4 of a mile  passed the elbow and back down to the car.

AM 20.5 miles,  Was meeting a group at Liberty Park fo a long run at 7:30 got there early so I could get in some extra before it gets to hot.  Ran 3 laps around the park until the group arrived and was ready to go.  We then headed to city creek via 3rd Ave and memory grove.  It is 5 miles from the park to the gate by the fountain and restrooms.  We had a quick drink and headed up the canyon another 3 miles before turning around and running back to Liberty.  16 miles first half all uphill and second have mostly downhill. Avg. 7:25 for the entire run with the group.  Felt good and recovering nicely from the 4th 5K and the 15 miles late the night before.  Run again tonight when it cools.  I'm now in a new age group 45-49.  Ate breakfast with the group and had a massage.
