Surprisingly little damage from the HCH, did anEZ run today but I might be ready for speed tomorrow. If so I think I will do uphill intervals at Maple canyon.

Relaxing 8 EZ to the gym and the canyon, 69 quarter at the end just for fun, grabbed a nectarine from the tree on the way in. Dang those things are big this year.

10 hard Springblade Megasuck.

OK so maybe my mind is waaay more powerful than I thought. I figured I would do my 10 hard route, but try it with the Springblades. Now that I no longer thought of them as a secret weapon, my body reacted in a neutral fashion and I was 15 seconds per mile slower! Good grief, makes me wonder what I could have done at HCH with the Kinvaras. I think next Tuesday I will have to have an uphill 660 with 3 in the Kinvaras and 3 in the Springblades.

Bill got me to come up to Murdock to run the soul killer, but he didn't show! Urk. That's OK, I was sick of running in Hobble Creek canyon anyway. Started at 5:30, the first mile was 7:04 (decent) but the next one was 6:26 (yeek, better slow up a bit) and then 6:21 (your other slow, maybe) I finally got myself to relax a bit and settled into the 6:40s, then at 6.5 I saw Chad and Chris Pusey coming the other way so joined them for their out and back for about  5 miles. That was nice. Then I ran to 800 north, past the parent's house tp get some OJ, and a grass loop for the even 20.New weekly mileage record!
