afternoon- Clyde took me on a beastly run today; and he wasn't even there. Took his Winchester Hills trail. At first planned on 12 mile loop Green Springs/Powerline/Water Tank run, but when I got up to the water tank, I started thinking I should get my long run in today since the rest of the guys would probably want to go 10-12 ish on Saturday. So, ill-prepared as I was, I kept going up the Turkey Farm road for a while until I hit the trail over to Winchester. A very cool area (I have never been back there before), but a hard trail - rocks and hills. After getting back onto the highway to Enterprise (SG Marathon course) I decided to push the pace a bit. At brought miles 11-17 down to just below 6:00 ave. I was pushing it and had to concentrate on going fast because I was pretty tired. Stopped at the St. George Running Center and chatted with Steve and Dustin for a minute and then ran back to PVHS. Went down diagonal and then dropped onto Blvd. because I didn't want to run up the hill to Skyline. The Blvd. reminded me why I didn't like running in SLC - traffic and people. Anyway, jogged those 5.75 in to school and was pretty beat by the end of it. (NB)
