I got lazy on Saturday, and decided that I would finish up the last day of my recovery weeks with an extra day off. Teren's sister and her family were staying with us. So, I slept in, ate pumpkin waffles, and enjoyed the day.

As a result, I was a bit stiff this morning. I ran 1300 W to 7000S, back on 2700 W. 7:15 average. I found that for this particular route, my internal Garmin was very accurate. My actual garmin matched up almost exactly to the distance that I had predicted. Years of running will do that.

I posted on the wrong day yesterday, and I'm too lazy to fix it. So, I will post today's run on yesterday's post . . . I think I'm confusing myself.

I drove down to Provo to run with my former teammates. It was worth the drive to run on my old stomping grounds and catch up. The banquet was fun last night, but running with friends is the best! Plus, my running shoes are a lot more comfortable than my high heels.

Tomy and Natalie will be pleased to hear that we ran Carterville. Coach Shane invited us to participate in 1200 meter repeats with the current team, but we politely declined, and moseyed along at our 8:03 pace. I'm having a blast reuniting with friends and reliving the glory days!

I've been bit by an extremely unmotivated lazy bug. Actually, I'm really just giving some of my other life's priorities a bit of attention. Still, I really need to get back on the training wagon. 5.6 miles, 6:58 pace. At least my pace is picking up!

The BYU Hall of Fame Induction is tonight. I'm really excited to see all my former teammates. This is such a huge honor. Only three other teams in BYU history have been inducted into the Hall of Fame. Tonight, 4 national championship cross country teams will join the ranks. I can't wait!
