Run up City Creek Canyon from the gym to the 2 mile mark past the guard's gate. The run up was easy to moderate and I maintained about a 6:50 pace all of the way down. I could hear a couple of runners catching up to me on the way down so each time they where within earshot I sped up. I hate being passed up even in my training runs. As one of my running buddies always tells me I'm a "alpha" runner. This is probably why when I run by myself I tend to hit the correct pace for that day and when I run with a group, specially a fast group, I will end up trying to stay in front of the pack and eventually over exert myself. |
