I did a run tonight, I will call the Gun Club Run. Basically started from my house and ran out on 300 West, then up the La Verkin Twist (State Road 9 going to Zion National Park) anybody familiar with the area knows its is a good climb to the top. I made it to the Gun Club turn off 3 miles in 24 minutes so I was happy with 8:00 minute mile average considering the uphill. After a little stretching at the top, I told myself I wanted to push it on the way down and be home in 21 minutes for a 7:00 minute average going downhill, fairly easy, but there was a very hard headwind. Anyway I made it home in 18 minutes so a lot faster than I was planning, but I was feeling pretty good, especially the first two miles 1-5:48 2-6:02 3-6:10 Like I mentioned we've had quite a bit of strong wind here today. This morning I didn't get a run in, but I shingled a garage from 7:00 am to 12:00, which was quite the workout. I'm pretty beat tonight, but planning on a track workout in the morning. |
