I moved my long run to Monday.  It was difficult to get a run in on Sunday due to house guests. 

Tough run.  Achieved my goal but feel that I will be paying for it this week.  Left knee is a little sore.  Not too sure why the run was as difficult as it was.  Maybe because of the knee, or sleeping poorly lately, blisters on my foot, or maybe just a combination of all of these things. 

Average pace: 7:56

Congratulations to all the bloggers that ran St George!  Some very incredibly fast times...which inspires me to recommit to my training and get faster.

Run up City Creek Canyon with the usual crowd.  Felt good and ended stronger than anticipated since I thought yesterdays long run would really slow me down.

Treadmill miles.  Wanted to keep the pace honest.  Legs a little tired still fron the long run on Monday.  I plan to take Saturday off to have fresh legs on Sunday for the long run.

Trail run on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.  Didn't pay attention to pace, rather just wanted to enjoy the fall colors so it was definitely on the slow side.  Felt strong through the very last mile and knee held up very well.  It took about 1:30 to complete...slooooow.  However, one of the most enjoyable runs of the season, a "rave" run.

I've average 11 miles a day for the past four days, more than what I'm accustomed to.  Friday will be a relatively short run (6-8 miles).

Treadmill miles once again.  Solid run but kept it relatively slow.  Will take Saturday off and do so cross training, probably swimming and weights.
