Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

I guess I'll call these easy miles, even though I feel pretty beat right now.  Ran an out & back on the Mid-Mountain trail from Stein Eriksen lodge to Spiro trail head.  The trial is singletrack and contours about 8,000 feet.  Beautiful scenery and saw a few packs of deer roaming around. 

Another reason for the fatigue is this is my 10th day in a row of running and I've accumulated over 100 miles during this time, plus some strength workouts and a decent mountain bike ride..  Not sure I'm ready to do that much mileage in a week yet. : )

14.61 in 2:07:48, avg. 8:45 per mile.  2,565 vertical gain

The North Face Fire Road Miles: 14.61

I knew I'd be taking the next day off and keeping it chill over the next week for vacation. All systems are go. :)
