Cascade golf course route. 5 miles @ 9:42/mi. The last half mile was @ 8:50/mi. That's the first time I remember seeing the numeral 8 at the beginning of a pace for a long time. I pushed hard the whole run again. I think my legs can handle it, and today apparently my back, but I sure have to work at getting enough oxygen to keep going.

Good run. I guess somebody forgot the oxygen when they made Utah? I have the same problem there.

Getting back in shape sure is a slow and painful process. Glad to hear that you back is feeling better.
