Solid group for a Monday. Did the good old Monroe Route. I suggested that we do it in Reverse but everyone didnt want to get to crazy, so we just stuck to the usual.

ended the run with 4 set of uphill/downhill sprints with Riley and Moss.

Met with Denver, Matt, and Riley at Smith's. Decided to do our 13 mile route in reverse today. About half way through the run Riley and I took an exploring mile that cut up on a trail from South Weber back into the South Ogden. Pretty muddy, but would be awesome to run when everything is dry.

Another solid day, now time to rest and get ready for some Fartleks tomorrow.

Blah! Felt so sluggish today. Late nights and an early morning run dont mix. Plus I was a couple pounds lighter this morning probably do to the fact that I felt extremely dehydrated on todays run. Had some slight cramping too. Today's focus is Bananas, and Liquids. 

Run was out and back on the canal road solo. Beautiful morning in the low 40s, no complaints at all.

Long run on the canal road. Headed south til the single track then turned back north and went to the elk farm came back up thru the gravel pits and made my way back to the canal then home. 

Nothing fancy with this run, just getting time on the feet.
