Morning run out to the TOU course. Two mile warmup to get to the 21 mile marker (7:41, 7:14). Then ran backwards along the course building into MP over the first mile. After that, it was ~MP until I hit the 17 mile marker and turned around and hit the same miles now going the right direction. I did ok except for mile 18 to mile 17 (see *) where I lost focus a bit and slowed down. (6:44, 6:28, 6:29(downhill), 6:46*, 6:28, 6:44 (uphill), 6:30, 6:20). Once I hit the 21 mile marker again, I crusied on home at sub 7 pace. I am planning on front loading this week so I can rest for Draper Days this sat.
Total Time: 1:23:16 (6:47 ave)
