morning - 15.5 St. George 1/2. Took the VIP tour of the new 1/2 route, since the planned one is washed down to Lake Mead. Felt pretty flat again. As we moved into the 2nd loop, we slowly made our way from just above Tinman to a pretty good clip (5:35), but I just felt very strained and working hard the whole time - I'm just not in that great of shape. Finished off with a little cool and Molly's Mile. Calve tightened up just a little bit right at the very end. 6:42 ave. (Ohana racers 468.25) Okay week. Pretty tired throughout the week after that decent run Monday. Leg improved a lot and seems to be working its way out of the woods. Goals for next week: would like to see a little weight come off - after the marathon, I always gain about 8'ish pounds that seem not to come back off until the summer comes around. Get the legs a little fresher.
