AM 1:33:43 Wanted to run 12 miles today, and what a great morning for a run....30 degrees and sunshine! I pretty much just made a bunch of loops thru my neighborhood, city park and lower Main street, and then the hood across the street from my house. It was a pretty brutal course, with lots of climbing(over 400 vert in the first 6 miles), but I wanted that for good strength training. After the main climbing part it was steady downhills and flats until mile 9, then it's a good climb for the next mile before turning onto Kearns and taking that down to my house. I felt like I could have gone farther, but I ditched my water bottle after mile 7 and didn't have any gels or anything, so I decided I had gone far enough. Avg. 7:33 per mile.
