Little Buddha

5 easy miles this morning, legs still a little sore from Saturday. The downhill pounded me a little more than I thought it would. Got out tonight and did an easy 7.5 miles from the house down 300 West to Farmer's then up past McKell's, over to Howard's, then down to Pah Tempe, up the hill (quite a bit of shade down there now, so that will be nice when I start doing some hill workouts here shortly) then over to the Hurricane City Park, quick stop for water then up to the middle school and home. I did do a short jog up another hill right by the bridge going over the gorge. I measured out 400 meters and thought about some possibilities for doing some repeats on the hill. Maybe some downhill running. Any ideas about doing some speed on a downhill from anybody out there? I know Sasha does some, and I just think much of St. George is downhill and I still don't feel like I go as fast as I could on the downhill, still feel like I need to train a little better for that?

8 mile run out to Hurricane Intermediate School and back.  I felt better than yesterday and the pace was a little faster 7:23 average.

5.5 easy this morning, legs are pretty sore and took awhile to warm-up. Another 5 miles this afternoon, up past McKell's, then down to the Confluence Park area, through the new Riverwoods Subdivision, pretty slow pace, legs sore during the run.

7.5 easy miles this morning in Murray, went from the condo down through Wheeler Farm then over to 1200 E?, down to Van Wrinkle, then back on 900 East.  Will try to do some more tonight in Colorado. Got to Colorado this afternnoon and did 4.5 from my parents down country road 31 2.25 miles, then back up.  I might have been feeling the altitude (6780 ft at my parent's door step) change a little in the beginning of the run.
