Track workout: mile repeats. I didn't have my watch, so I decided to just stick with a few people that usually are a little faster than me and I think this actually helped me go faster today. Our mile times were- 6:32, 6:37, 6:45, 6:41.  Very tough workout, but I felt pretty good

AP 8:47, Long run from the top of Veyo hill to diagonal and 300 w. Paul was nice and got up and drive a bunch of is up to Veyo. I ran with Karen and Bree. I enjoyed the relaxed pace since I was a little tired and sore from track and tempo. Nice weather!!  I tried to eat a honey stinger and gagged it out at mile 5, then 5 stinger chews at mile 10. I took a salt pill at each of these stops, too. I haven't run with salt pills much, but I think it'll be a good idea to get used to it.

Run up at Brian Head - 10,000 feet elevation. AP 10:15. This was a beautiful run on a dirt road around the mountains of Brianhead ski resort. Lots of uphill and burning lungs!
