Probably one of the most horrible runs of my life.  My goal was to run 20 so that should already clue you in to some crappiness.  I had my fuel belt ready to go and started off on the Jordan River Parkway trail from 1700 South.  After about a half a mile I ran into a flooded part under the bridge.  I was able to get around it on the rocks.  Found another flooded part at about 3 miles.  Walked through a field and hopped two fences to continue on.  By this time my shoes were pretty soaked so that just made me angry.  Then at 4 miles I found a part that I would not get past.  Decided to give up on the path.  Went up and hopped the fence again and ran on the road.  

 By the time I got to 5 miles my achilles was getting painful.  This was very random considering I haven't had issues with it at all.  I was in a random place pretty far out so I was kinda lost.  By the time I got back I was at about 14 miles.  I was super stubborn so I kept running for 3 more.  I couldn't run Sat and I normally take Sunday off.  I went to watch BB run the Ogden marathon.  She ran it as a training run and did a great job!
