No frost today, it was actually pretty mild (40 at 7 a.m.) and I felt a little overdressed. Went out Trenton Avenue, which is essentially one long hill, then a short downhill, then another longer uphill stretch. I went from there out to Illahee State Park and did a loop through the park and a neighborhood, then back on a portion of Trenton and home. Coming home I got a better pace going (hills were in my favor) but the pace was more difficult than it should have been. Two 12-hour+ days at work plus a day of running around to see family might have been catching up with me. I stretched out quite a bit and I'll relax the rest of today, then head to Seattle to run part of the marathon with Aaron tomorrow morning.

You did have a steady week, good job. I haven't done anything for Moab because I though you did. Sorry for not communicating better.
