11 miles today.  Eight easy and 3 at a pretty good pace going uphill towards the end of the run.

I actually ran with someone today.  I thought I was racing, I don't see to many people where I run.  I ran with my brother in law, who's been training pretty hard for the Bryce Canyon Half.  It was his last long run and the longest he's ever ran, so I decided to run the 11 with him to see if I could be of any assistance.  I was surprised to see how fast and prepared he is for Bryce.  He's 21 and has been training pretty seriously over the last 3 months for his first half.  I'm sure he'll run a sub 7 minute mile on race day.  We ran at 7200 feet, I didn't really seem to notice the elevation. 

We saw two red tailed foxes.  We spoke of the beneifits of running and race day stratagies for potty breaks.

10 easy miles this morning.  I was going to do some speed this morning, but I thought a day of easy running would do me good after yesterdays run.  I'll do some speed tomorrow.  Hopefully I'm smart enough to get up early tomorrow and beat the heat.

6 easy miles and 4 mile @ speed.  I was happy to see an overcast this morning, it made for a cool run. 

Did miles repeats:

Mile 1 @ 5:44

Mile 2 @ 5:33

Mile 3 @ 5:25

Mile 4 @ 5:13

I was pretty happy with the overall results of today's work out.  I need to start pushing that first mile.

12 easy mile, started way too late.  It was a slow, sluggish run.  At least I got out.
