I wasn't able to run yesterday due to finally getting grass put in the backyard. It has taken 2 years but it is in. I was trashed so I relaxed and decided to go for a long run again this morning. I ran from my house in Ivins out through Kayenta and then just past the turn off going towards Gunlock. I kept it nice and easy the first 10 and then kept it steady the last 10. This is not the easiest 20 mile route due to the rolling hills but I seem to run better on them. I averaged 6:33/mile overall and finished with a 5:22 last mile. I ran the 20 in just over 2 hours 10 minutes. One of the better 20 milers I have had in a long time. I can't remember the last time I did two 20 milers in the same week. Happy to get it in though.
