Ran from home.  Kind of an emotional run.  May have had something to do with my music choice.  Average pace 9:50.

I ran with Peggy and Cheris.  3 mile warm and then we ran 5x1000 meters with a short recovery.  The first two repeats were good.  The last three were into the wind and were hard.

7:13, 7:13, 7:50, 7:41, 7:51

I'm having some pain in my lower left leg.

I got to Riverton park and warmed up for about 1/2 mile before the race started.  My plan was to use this as my marathon paced tempo run.   For some reason we did a big loop around the park when the gun went off.  That added over a half mile to race.   I was happy with my pacing for the most part.  I hit 6.2 at the bottom of the steep uphill switchbacks.  I was kind of done at the point.  I did end up finishing 1st in my age group.  8:08, 8:35, 8:07, 8:11, 8:14, 8:07 and 8:53.  Average 8:19

I'm following the HMM training plan and decided to use this as my long run for the week.  I went in without tapering at all, including running the Riverton 10k just 3 days before.  I could fill the fatigue in my legs right from the start.  I knew it wasn't going to be a fast race, so I decided to think of it as the last 13.1 miles of St. George.  I did slow down more than I wanted in a few of the later miles.  Overall it was a run race.  I went down with Peggy and Cheris.  Average pace 8:12.
