Last long run before St George Marathon. We had to get up extra early so some of us could get to work on time. We were suppose to run this 30 to 45 seconds slower than race pace. I manage to average the whole run at a 7:38. Race goal pace is 7:15. We started out easy from the top of Veyo hill, had a few fast miles, and the last 2 miles felt like the end of a marathon. Maybe the 100 squats last night and the bike ride made me a little tired for this run. I felt good, but the last 2 miles I mentally had to push myself. I always feel tired when running between Diagonal street and worthen park.
