County roads too snowy this morning so I drove into town.  Parked at Teton Running went down Sunnyside, through SRL, along the greenbelt across Johns Hole bridge then back to the truck to take on fuel and water.  -  repeat.

Felt OK.  went slower than I wanted, but got the miles in.

Saw Jeff out on the trail but only one other runner.  Wet feet, and poor footing most of the way.

Day two of back to back long runs.  repeated the loop from yesterday.  Tough day.  windy.  tired legs.  Impossible to judge pace or effort into the wind.  no GPS.  The bank clock suggested I did a little better than it felt.

Decided to see if I could still run fast.  10.1 miles from the house passed Sandy Downs then around the golf coarse then home.  A little windy but not as bad are some recent runs.  18 mph gusts to 25

1 @ 7:17 warm up, downhill, down wind

2 @ 6:52 up wind, a little down hill

3 @ 6:57 flat, up wind

4 @ 7:03 flat, up wind

5 @ 7:00 flat, down wind

6 @7:00 flat, down wind

7@6:58 flat, down wind

8 @7:01, flat down wind

9@7:29  back up hill and into the wind

10@8:10 steep up hill and into the wind

feel good about the effort.

Went for the TM because of the wind.  It was raining hard when I finisher. 6 mi @ mgp +30 sec.  2 mi @ mgp.  had not planned on working that hard, but I just wanted it over.  

8 miles at an easy easy pace.  beautiful day for a run.

from the house most of the way to Bone on an out and back with 3100 feet of climb.  Tough run.  Kind of dissapointed with the pace.  Mixed lots of run/walk on those hills.

The 100 miles this week is a bit of an accounting trick.  I had to move my Sunday long run up one day because of work so two long run fell in this week.  Still, a big big milestone for me to see a week with three digits for the first time.
