Easy run today.  Definitely still feeling last week's mileage, but less than expected.

15 mile tempo workout.  Pace was fast, not sub 6 but fast, but the good thing is it didn't feel nearly as hard as I was expecting.  In fact I had more energy the last 3-4 miles than I expected and was really able to turn on the jets.

Easy run.

*at 11:30 PM:  Just realized that I cleared 2000 miles for the first time in my life today!  That's an average of 62.5 miles per week for the past 8 months.  Definitely the best and most consistent training I have ever done.  Maybe 3000+ miles is a good goal for the year.

Scoped out the TOU course today.  Had my cousin shuttle me up Blacksmith Fork and I just ran the whole way back.  Tried out this new drink mix stuff that my dad's cousin (or aunt?) sent me to try.  Seemed to do a good job.  It's called Solistic Revive or something...basically just a bunch of electrolytes (Ca, Mg, K, Na, etc, with some fructose and glucosamine and stuff).  She wanted me to test it out for her.  Anyway.  Pace was fast for a training run of this distance.  I hope I didn't push too hard.  I have two weeks to recover though so as long as I remain injury free I think I'll be fine.  I wanted to simulate the feel of how it's going to be so I wanted to push fairly hard.  Learned some things about the course.  I am so ready for this!  Can't wait.

Easy easy run.  Tired, but not too bad considering the difficulty of yesterday's workout.

AM:  Peach Days Fun Run.  Used this mostly as a workout, since it was pretty low key.  Wanted to be a good hard workout, and significantly under MP.  Got that taken care of.  Actually, the awards are done by how close you come to your predicted time.  No watches allowed.  I predicted 40 minutes for 7.2 miles.  The course ended up being long though (I thought my final time sounded much slower than it should have been, so I used both the Course Tool and another source to clock it and both gave me 7.6 miles).  At 7.2 miles at my pace I would have been at 39:54--so I was actually pretty dang close.  But I didn't really care.  Just got a great tempo workout in so that's fine with me.  More running tonight.

42:07 (5:32/mi.)

PM:  7 more easy miles before going to the rodeo.  No watch.
