Fly on the Wall

9 miles with 10x 100 strides.  Ran down to the Virgin River and then took dirt trails south into the real desert.  8:33 ave pace.

Again ran down the the Virgin River and then south on dirt trails and roads into the desert.  Some stretches were quite muddy- gotta love 100 pound shoes. ave pace about 9. 

EZ miles.

Jordan River Pkw to Legacy Pkw.  Some muddy sections and a few patches of snow.

8:27 ave pace, 141 bpm

Up City Creek and back.  8:16 ave pace.  Ran fairly ez but probably picked up the pace a bit because of my train of thought.

A beautiful, pleasantly warm and sunny day.  I ran the trails behind my house.  Headed up to the radio tower ridge line and thought about running into N. Salt Lake but the snow was above my gators and I was wearing shorts.  So I took the BST back into City Creek and beyond.  The trail was muddy and snow packed (but not deep).  With the trail conditions and hills my legs were feeling very tire but a strange thing happened when I returned to the pavement at mile 16.5, boom my legs could move again.  My average pace for the 18 was 10:57 (143 bpm) but the last mile was 6:27 (163 bpm)- DOWNHILL.
