After my wife's alarm went off around 5, we were treated to a violent microburst with heavy rain, hail, thunder and close lightning.  We were almost persuaded to scrap the run and go later.  I'm glad we didn't.  

Long run on Bonneville Blvd, 11th Ave, Virginia, South Temple, then up and down City Creek Canyon.  Map my run doesn't have good info on the road past a certain point, so I'm a little bit unclear on the overall distance.  I'm going to call it a solid 20, since half of it was up hill.

I caught up to a guy early in the run, and did the whole run together.  2:52 including pauses to drink here and there.

No more long runs until the marathon.  I'm not sorry about that.

Nice run, nice week. I smell a solid marathon around the corner. Is that a sweet smell or a stink?
