Last week was supposed to be a big week for me.  I planned on starting strong with that 13 mile run through Farmington Flats but by monday morning I was pretty sick and it got worse until thursday. I ended up bagging the whole week and worrying about speedgoat the whole time.  Hopefuly this week will be what last week wasn't.  10 miles this evening from the junction gate in farmington canyon up to fracis peak. I'm hoping that if I can keep running above 7,000 feet I will become accustomed to the elevation and it wont be such a big deal at speedgoat.
