Easy 8 miles around west Riverton on the canal with the kids.  Hot afternoon!  Not much to say I went way easy.

No run again!  First day of school and Pre Region after school.  I didn't get home until 8:00pm again.  I have to get some miles in, but it has been crazy busy!

Ran with my guys on a hot loop around Riverton.  We hit every park that we could find with water along the way.  Upper 90s for sure.

It was way hot but I forced myself out the door for a long run so I could salvage a crappy running week.  I headed out to Butterfield Canyon.  It was way hot and there is no water going out.  I saw tons of deer along the way and up the canyon.  I finally got some relief form the heat when I got up Butterfield about a mile.  I ran up further than last week and average about 7:55 for the 1,000 foot climb.  The way back I need water bad, but there was none.  I was going a decent pace but couldn't bust out anything hard because I was so hot and dehydrated.  I averaged around 7 minute pace coming home with the last two miles being mostly uphill.  I did stop at the spash park for a quick drink so I could make the last 1.5 miles home.  1:59:55 for the run.

I was shot after last night and I was up later than I wanted.  I had to get up before 5:30 to struggle through 8 miles around Herriman before we headed down to the grass relays.  The whole run was in the dark and seemed pretty long.  I was just glad to salvage a 40 mile week with my 24 miles in 12 hours. 1:02:20
