A rough one this morning. Pouring rain, bloody nipples and the need to drop a load. I need a vacation.

Bountiful, UT 6:30 am

Pace: 8:59

Really nice weather this morning for a very hilly run. My car was blocked in, so I had to leave from the in-law's house and run up to Bountiful Blvd. Not that I really minded. Driving to run always seems a little weird to me. I kept it at a comfortable pace over the rolling hills then coming down on 31st street I went through a skunk stink. It must have been really close because it was burning my nose. All kinds of fun there.

I ran down Davis Blvd. today. It's a lot like Bountiful Blvd. but withouth the uphill run to get there. It was raining when I got up, but stopped before I got out there and I didn't get wet at all during the run.

I'm feeling good. The body is holding up. My little toe is a little sore on the downhills. I banged it in a bizarre gardening accident (Isn't that Spinal Tap? "You can't dust for vomit")

Same route as yesterday but faster and a half-mile shorter.

Another skunk! What is it with this town?

Heber, UT 8:00 am

Pace: 8:50

I thought that being up here camping would be a great opportunity to get in some nice runs. I was wrong. The cabin is at the top of the mountain. The only direction is down, which means the only direction back is up. With the race coming up in just over a week, I decided that I would take things a little easier. Thus the shorter run. It was a nice brisk morning. A nice run, but hilly.

The hills this past week have taken a bit of a toll, so I just did a short one today. I need to start tapering anyway.
