| Kevin and I ran the longer Lindon loop this morning. I started on an antibiotic on Saturday to hopefully clear up the respiratory issues that have been plaguing me for the last two weeks. I felt like my breathing was still labored this morning, but then I realized that we were running 8:30 pace instead of the 9:00-10:00 pace I've been running. Just before we turned back south we realized we'd had a tail wind for the first half of the run. With the headwind and some uphill stretches on the return trip our pace slowed...or I should say my pace slowed and Kevin slowed to stay with me. We ended up averaging 9:05/mi, which is about as fast as I've been able to run these days, but we ran 6.2 miles instead of the 4.5-ish I've been doing lately, so I view it as an improvement. |

| The wind was so strong and cold coming out of the mouth of Provo canyon this morning that Larry, Kevin and I decided to run south, with the wind to our backs. We ran along the Provo River trail down to Macey's on State Street and back, tacking a little distance on the end (into the wind up Provo canyon) to get to 10 miles. At one point, while crossing under University Parkway next to the river, the sidewalk under the bridge was flooded and we had to climb up and along the hillside for a bit. This was one day when just getting a long run in was a major accomplishment. Average pace: 10:34/mi. |
