AP-8:50 I felt good on this long run. It was nice to run relaxed and slow- We went up Dixie all the way up to Snow Canyon Pkwy, then down Diagonal and finished on the trail. I added on a few extra miles to get to 18. I brought a couple of GUs and they helped keep me energized. I also found a dollar in my pocket, so we stopped for a Diet coke break around mile 8. The first 7 miles of this run were mostly uphill, then downhill as we came through town. We saw someone we knew on the trail and slowed quite a bit to chat with him - this was at about 14-15 miles and the slowing down really made all of my aches and pains evident. After the run it was a crazy busy day, so not very much time for stretching and resting - I was tired. |
