I meant to run this distance Saturday, but I was too lazy to do it in the morning and never got a chance in the evening.  I still wanted to do it because I have the Rim Country Challenge Half Marathon this Saturday (while everyone else is doing SGM.)  I need to make sure I can even run the distance.  I felt pretty good even though I was very thirsty.  I even got to the point where I talked myself into picking up any bottle of liquid laying on the side of the road for a few swigs.  The first one I saw was a beer bottle, so I passed that up.  Then I saw a jug of Arizona Green Tea, so I passed that up.  Then I saw a Coca-Cola bottle, and I passed that up.  On the WOW scale, they were getting better, but I decided to just man up and wait 'til I got home.  Now the plan is to taper down to 3 miles a day until Friday.  Then I'll run a couple of miles in Payson to try and acclimate to the higher elevation.  Then Saturday's the race.  Hopefully I just miss the first session only of General Conference.
