PM- Late night run in Vegas. Had some crazy cloud action. We’ll say that’s why I ran so slow because I was distracted by the clouds…. 4.27 miles 

AM- Got to the race spot early and hit a random industrial road. Hit 2 miles at marathon race pace with a mile break in between. The first 6:49 really took some effort. The 6:33 was smooth and feeling good. I probably would’ve hit some more but ran into PV arriving at the course. Started with varsity “30/90 McDukie” crew that quickly dissolved into running with Rush. Then I burned laps cheering on all the dominating PV teams. PV>Nevada. 12.65 miles 

Had to hop on the course. I had too much anxiety for the Steelers game so I had to get pot for a run. Actually felt pretty good. 4.02 miles

Chill 15 with Derek Gallacher on the course. Probably be my last time on before the race. Smooth running until I ran into a cone and took a little tumble. We were just talking about safety and the cones right before I went barreling into one. Slowed me down for the rest of the run. 15.15 miles
