16.25 in 2:06:27.  7:47 avg pace.  Started just after 6 am and ran close to home today.  I didn't want to fight the head wind and cold of Provo Canyon.

Headed east on Pioneer Crossing and then hit a side road and eventually connected with Main St. in A.F.  Connected to the Alpine Highway and made the long climb into Alpine.  This is easily the longest part of this run for me. Eventually I get to the main intersection in Alpine by the Kohlers and then I get on the main road that leads out to the freeway.  Lots of construction up there, but it was early enough that it wasn't too bad to run this road.  Eventually I get to Smith's Mktplace and then I make my way to 300 West and then head back home via Center St.  I was laboring around mile 13 and luckily I had brought some money and so I stopped at a gas station and refueled with some Powerwade.  I was a new man after that.  Hit miles 15 and 16 in 6:51 and 6:30.

I felt good for the most part.  This was my longest run in the Kinvaras.  They felt good.  I really like them.  I was lucky enough to find a couple drinking fountains along the way, which helped a lot.

Will go lift for about 30 min.

Kinvara Miles: 16.25

Nice job on the long run. Always great to finish strong and feeling good running some sub-7 miles.

Great run Jeff! New shoes I have never heard of. Those sub sevens are nice at the end of a long run.
