AM- Warmed up 1.5 miles.  Ran 5k time trial with the team.It was a tougher course being all uphill up Shaggy and Prospero, then down mostly the second half down Leila, Juniper, Murdoch down to Monarch.  I was 18:40 for the 5k and 5th.  We were missing some boys.  It was way hot too, about 75 to 80 degrees at 6:45 am!  Cooled down for two miles at 8:00 ave.

PM- One of the hottest runs ever out to Butterfield Park and back, up Crown Rose and down Mount Ogden.  7:43 ave

Started the kids off at Butterfield Canyon and then Greg and I drove up the canyon about 3.5-4 miles.  We warmed up a mile and then did a mile of speed, mile recovery, 2 miles of speed, 1.5 mile recovery, and 3 mile tempo with a shorter recovery.  Greg was with me the first mile (5:25), the first mile of the 2 mile (5:24, 5:26), and I lost him in the 3 mile (5:54, 5:46, 5:55).  Tough workout, but it felt good to do it, especially after the tough run up Yellow Fork yesterday.  I was a little sore when we started.  6:31 ave for the run.

Warmed up by myself and with Tanner and with Tanner and Corbin.  Did 1.5 miles with a couple of striders.  This Riverton race was disorganized compared to past years, but there was a good turnout.  My legs were tired from this week.

Golden and a UVU kid, plus some HS kids were there in the 5k with me and a decent looking field for the 10k too.

I did not run well!  It was hot and muggy and I could not get rolling.  Stayed around 6:00 pace.  Finished 4th because the UVU kid took a wrong turn.  

Tanner won the 10k.  I cooled down and watched the 10k and then ran with Tanner and Corbin for a mile.  Glad I did it though an got a workout.
