morning - 13 Wasatch. Did an out and back on Wasatch instead of the normal loop - just because it is pretty up there and I like running next to the mountains. Kind of a wierd run though. I slept in a bit because of the fireworks going all night up here (I have never heard fireworks go so long - from 9:00 to 11:45 straight with no breaks. Made for a pretty poor sleep). Finally got going and felt pretty good at first and even entertained the idea of making a bit of a tempo, but when I turned around at that park where Wasatch drops down to Draper I just was suddenly spent. No energy and just kind of limped in back in. I think it was mostly because I didn't treat yesterday right. In my mind it was kind of like yesterday was Saturday and I didn't prepare myself for another day of running. It was cool at that park though; someone put a huge American flag somehow suspended like a kite on wires from way up high on the rock ledges between to canyons and the wind was really stretching it way out high like it was just suspended and flying up there - looked cool. (Kinvara Green 55) Week was okay I guess - nothing great, just kind of made it through it. Goals for next week: might be up kind of wierd in that I probably won't get a double in Mon or Tues, so we'll see what that does to me mileage wise. Hopefully bounce back a bit from today's poor run with some fresher legs on Mon. |
