8:38 average to lone peak hs via af hs and art dye then down by temple.  

1100 north and murdock trail start point.  Ran north on trail.  Got to potty's just before Lone Peak high school 4.17 miles and then ran back.  Last mile 7:38, last 0.34 7:25 pace.   Before that nice and easy.  AVG pace 8:22

3 mile time trial impromptu.    Plan was pg rec.  but forgot it was closed when I got there. Closed for a week.   So I drove back home --I had just come from dropping off amber at soccer.  Thought about pg track.  Nope no watch plus it's black.  Got home and got my watch and ran to af hs track.  Like this track. It's a light pink. Have always run here.  Weather perfect today. Humid but overcast with a slight breeze.  Ran 3 mile warm up.   Kind of stretched. Really just avoiding the start.  So not like speed work on a track makes me nervous.  Ran first mile in 7:05:(halfs 3:33/3:31) 7:06 (1.5 miles in 10:37-3:32/3:34) and last mile 7:07 --last lap 1:43.  First three laps in 5:24.   21:19.  Honestly felt easy until last lap was comfortably hard.   Ran two miles home.  Feeling good. 

Wallburg  20 miler.  Yah decided to join the group when I woke at 515.  Got to mouth of canyon for the ride up at 5:37.  Ran with stop watch with five other girls-- Kim, Jane, Summer, Merri, and Lydia.  At first I was behind running at a warm up pace. Then I felt great coming out of Wallsburg and going up the hills towards Provo on the highway by Deer Creek.  So I stayed behind Kim about 30 seconds.  Ran at Trail at Vivian Park while Kim, Summer and Jane stayed on highway. Sun was out after a misty rain start and I just love the trail more.  I thought of it more of a gift to myself with 6 miles to go-- shade, trail and my two water holes I like to stop at (stopped 30 seconds at each).  Merri and Lydia were going on trail too but I just ran by myself.  I felt great and played my speed work song from yesterday about 30 times.  It just helped me stay calm on the busy free way and focus on the trail.  Not sure why I felt so good??  Avg Pace 7:55.  Calculated by math since I had no garmin but knew distance from Merri.  Went a little past our cars (2.5 minutes out and back) at mouth of canyon to make sure I got 20.  It was 20.2.  Nice weather and good friends.  Just thankful for a good run. 

Easy Miles from my house to art dye long way up to canal down silo road over to osmond lane.  Stop watch.  Avg 8:35
