AM - 24 miles. Long Run on the Park City rail trail. Nice mix of dirt and bike path. This was Andrea's longest run of the buildup, so I ran 22 w/ her, then did a faster mile at marathon pace (5:18, net uphill. I'm glad I'm not running a marathon at 6500 feet!), then one more to cooldown. Absolutely perfect running weather today. Afterwards we went for brunch at Wasatch Bagel.

PM - 3.5 miles shakeout. I swear I don't do these short shakeouts to pad mileage... I really feel like there is a huge benefit in doing them to expedite recovery. Seems to work for me. Legs felt excellent.

You show that breakfast who's boss.

Nice run. I like that trail.

Unfortunately most of it came home in a doggy bag... my stomach only seemed to want chocolate milk after the run!

Jake the size of your breakfast looks like the size of my dinner. Awesome training week off the 1/2 and nice run!

haha technically that was Andrea's breakfast AND mine... I'm not a total pig! :-)

AND also technically he could only eat half of it! What a wimp.

I've had breakfasts that big! Probably a major reason I haven't lost the last 10 pounds my legs and feet need. I keep thinking the training will take the weight off. I've lost most of the fat, but the muscle from years of not running doesn't come off so easily.
