went with kim to riverwoods to meet Summer's brother who then drove us up Provo canyon to Wallsburg. We ran up two miles (3.5 miles into Wallsburg) then turned around and ran to Canyon Glen park. Well Julie E picked me up at 17.7 miles.  I told her I wanted only 18 like her and Melanie.  So nice of her :D.  But I wanted to run the last 0.3 miles so when she dropped me off at riverwoods to wait for Kim, Jane and Summer I ran up to mouth of canyon (Will's at Mouth) at the gate to go to parking lot and back.  course tooled it at 1.11 miles there so 2.22 additional miles.  Just shy of 20 but all this is done via course tool. The girls all said it was 18.4 to Canyon glen and course tool said 18. 3.  so I think its safe to say 20 or at least round up.  Felt really good the entire time.  The temps were NIPPY and I love nippy fall weather. Wore shorts and short sleeve and long sleeve and gloves until mile 7.5.  With no watch I felt liberated.  No need to stare at splits or worry if slow. Totally by feel.  Summer was just in front of me and said she was going 7:50 on down and 8:15 on hills.  so I am sure my average was probably 8:15??  Won't ever know but wow I feel great.  Ok well  my symphisis pubis did hurt quite a bit but I never felt winded, pushed, taxed like "get this over now" feeling.  Just a nice long run to help my body learn to burn glycogen slower.  And ONE WEEK POST MARATHON  I am quite happy that my body cooperated.  I couldn't even thought to run tuesday or wednesday this week.  I thought but KNEW not a good idea.
