Nice miles.  Probably the flatest miles I have run since being here.

My first planned workout in a long time.  I was heading over to the hills and did a 3 mile warm up.   4 repeats up a .3 mile good incline hill and then 4 sprints up the steepest section and then back to the hotel.  Back home had some good gradual up hill as well.

Met the BBK's for one very last run.   Dean was back from the Ironman and had done fantastic so it was fun to hear about his experience.  It was great to see everyone and I didn't cry there, just once I was in the car on my way home.

Ran from the church to where our new house will be while Jake was at early morning seminary.   Pretty hilly route and tried to pick it up a little.

I have been wanting to run Bryant Irvin road for the past few weeks and tonight I got the chance while Jake was at baseball practice.  The run did not start out so well because I was afraid of all the traffic on the road I had to run on to get to Bryant Irvin.  I tried to run somewhere else but there really wasn't a lot to pick from, so I head down the .7 miles to get to Bryant Irvin.  I had to stop and move into the weeds everytime a car came because it was a tiny two lane road without a shoulder - will not do this again.  Once I hit Bryant Irvin I had some flat until I ran down the long hill and was ready to go up the steep hill.   The steep hill is .35 long and was not as bad as I thought.  I then continued with rollers  until I hit the point I needed to turn around.  Once I turned around and a about 1/2 way back I got to run up the long hill - measuring at about .75 mile.   I was tired at the turn around but it wasn't too bad.  Another trip down the two lane road and I mad it back safely.  Will run Bryant Irvin again, won't run the two lane road again.  I kept a pretty even pace and effort the entire time and that was my goal.

I ran Bryant Irvin again and had a little better start this time.  Ran it with an ave pace of 8:37 - 20 seconds faster than last time and I added another hill.  Pretty happy.
