2 miles of cross training this morning (frisbee).
Paul, Cody, Dan, and I met at 1 pm for a trail run. Yes, it was hot- 88 deg in Logan when we got back, so I figure it was 75 or maybe even 80 deg on our run. We did the Beaver Creek to Sink Hollow loop, which I had never done before. Nice run, but too many ATV's and dirt bikes for my liking. I felt ok on the first half but couldn't really get my legs going fast on the downhill portion- still decent pace, but I was struggling a bit for some reason. I still finished the 13 miles in 1:42:36, which puts me at 7:53 average pace. Not horrible for a trail run, but it wasn't steep so faster would have been better. I did enjoy doing some nice downhill through a pine forest.
I was the only one without a GPS watch- and I am proud of it! I will hold out! Those guys are all slaves to their watches, now.
Paul was talking about Brautwursts for sale, so I stopped by the stand after and ate 2. Yum yum. Plus some ice cream and pop.
52 miles for the week- I was hoping for 70, but missed Monday and my Thur run was about 7 short due to time. I will plan for 65-70 next week, which may be hard since I will be in hot Florida for 4 days.
