| If ever I wished I could be dishonest about a run, today would be the day. I had a wonderful idea of getting dropped off at the Mueller Park trailhead and running down North Fork City Creek to City Creek and home. I was in South Ogden and I got dropped off around 2:15. This was my first time there and I missed the trail head, I went straight up the road to Mill Creek. I stubbornly assumed it would meet up with the trail at some point and kept following pink flags until it no longer became a good idea to do so. I could still see GPS on my phone so I tried to cut straight up the mountain side. That didn't get me anywhere, so I cut back down and returned to the start and had my wife come get me. A waste of two and a half hours, especially the 48 minute mile cutting up the mountain side. Oh well. Other than cuts on the legs, I still feel great. |

| Left just after 11:10 when it was still low 80s. Emigration out and back. Went strong the way up and tied my shoe on the turn around. Then realized I had a stiff headwind all the way back and wasn't feeling quite as strong. 37:11 up and 35:24 back. The warm-up mile from work is 200 ft down and I did that in 7:43 down and 8:31 back up so the middle 8 were just under 7 average going 560 ft up and back down. |

AM 8 miles. Woke up at 5 and took 15 minutes to get going. I warmed up for a bit and wasn't really feeling it. I went to west and did a few strides on straightaways and then did 2x1000 in 3:36 and 3:38. Since I wasn't really feeling it, I decided to cut the workout and left the track. Also, I arrived before sunrise and awoke at least ten people who are apparently making the track their homeless encampment. There were a few nestled by a wall and a family sleeping on the high jump mats. I just felt like getting out of there. I ran another couple and threw in four 30-40 second Murphys in mile 7. 60 minutes total. Then I came home and did Coach Jay's general strength routine. Lunch 6.35 miles. 15 minutes easy, 15 at MP, 15 easy. Marathon pace was 6:12 for 2.42 miles on the rolling Wasatch blvd. Felt good but it was mid 80s and I was a bit tired/parched. Did some more general strength.

| I am going to start working in doubles but slowly. I considered a double today but 5:45 am self decided against it telling me I shouldn't push my luck doing them three days in a row.. I also didn't want to run in the heat and lose speed for a ten miler, so I decided on a treadmill progression instead since those are so much fun. Started at 7:30 and dropped it 10-12 seconds per mile down to 6:09 for mile 9 then a 7:05 cool. Miles 1-6 were at 1.5 grade, mile 7 at 2.5 (6:27 pace), mile 8 at 3.5 (6:18 pace), mile 9 at 2.5 (6:09 pace) and mile 10 flat. 68:30 total. Miles 8 and 9 were pushing 160 HR so I'm going with marathon pace for those. |

5:00 am Longish run before the vacation drive tonight. Ran up city creek via memory grove. Once again, I failed to power my watch and it died just after mile 9. I averaged 8 minutes on the way up and got home about 117 minutes after I left so the way back was about 53 minutes. Maybe a 7:18 average. 1500 ft up.
