3 easy in the morning. Around 5 for the workout. We did some 400m repeats. The first three were alright but after the second one it was really hard for me to breath during the recovery jog. This doesn't usually happen to me so it was kind of weird. It was way hot but I drank a lot of water during school so I'm not sure if it was the heat that was really bothering me. Wasn't a terrible workout today although I felt a little flat. It'll be good to escape the heat tomorrow at Pine Valley.

3 easy in the morning. Got to go up to Pine Valley in the afternoon. It was nice and cool up there. Felt good to get out of the heat for a bit.

Did 3 miles in the morning. When we started to leave up to Provo I started to feel real sick. I ran about half a mile to see if it would help but I was exhausted. No running for the reset of the week so I could take a little time off and recover.

Got to go up to Bryce Canyon today to volunteer for the Bryce Canyon 100. Got in a few miles with Coach a couple of hours after we got there. Felt pretty good for my first day back running since a couple of weeks ago.

This morning I got up and did a few more miles solo. It was pretty cold so I was a little stiff when we started, but after 10 minutes I was pretty warm. I decided to check out a single-track trail that was part of the race about a mile away from our aid station. I only ran on it for about half a mile but it seemed pretty sweet. I saw a deer and we had a 30 second staring contest. I won so that was pretty cool.

It was an awesome opportunity to volunteer at the race this weekend and watch all these runners go through. From what I heard from the runners, it was a pretty brutal course and I was glad to help them as they went through. It seems crazy to be running 100 miles almost nonstop for around 24 hours. These runners are definitely something else. I think ultrarunning would be something really cool to get into and might be something I find myself doing in 15 years or so.
