Recovery is going great! legs are a little heavy, but no soreness at all from the race? 1st time that's happend.  Out for an easy couple tonight with the dog. Hot!

Really looking forward to a good 6 weeks of hard training.   Lots of long runs planned.  First one up is from Avon to Mountain Green, maybe this weekend?

Wow new month already! Yikes that 100 is coming up too fast.  First real run of the week.  It felt good to take a few easy days after Saturday.  Started at Wheeler to Maples to the CW overlook and back.  On the way up, when I came off of Maples onto the trail up to the over look I slowed a bit to hit my gel and drink some water.  2 guys on bikes tried to pass me, I took a sip of my water, but it back in the holster, gave the guy a glance and shifted gears and took off, leaving them in the dust!  I got to the top hung out, watched the sunset and headed down, passing them still on the way up, both gave me a funny look.  I love that we can run up hill faster than most people on bikes, like revenge for all the times they about kill me on blind corners and I think it kinda blow their mind.  Anyway, I got out late and had the pleasure of running up in nice evening shade and caught the sunset from the overlook and raced the fading light back to the car. I lost, and ended up runnning the last 3 down a very dark trail with a crappy light.  14 miles 2450 vert. 9:04 pace.

1st trip up BL for the year, ran into the go fasties BJ and Jon on their way down, talked for a bit.  Went by lots and lots of chatty hikers.  I got out too late for the annual 4th of July crowd. Remkes signed the book saying they beat the sun! Too early for me! Legs heavy today and my energy was very low, run felt really long.  Diagnosis, grass allergies kick'en in hard and I started out about a quart low on fluid and it only got worse from there. Oh, and I gotta eat mo bettah.  Beutiful day out overall and great to finally get to a real peak. ??time?? Garmin shorted on the way up, reset on the down and ran  low 9:'s to high 7's. 15 miles or so, 3600ish vert.  7300 vert this "weak" and 38 miles or so.
