I ran out towards Payson via canal road, tried to keep the pace a little easier but every time I checked I was going faster than I should be for a recovery run, it felt pretty comfortable so I just went with it. After I returned home and saw my daughter off to the bus I decided to add on one more, so I headed out to the stake center on canal road which is a little over a mile round trip, pace was around 8:00 and then it progressed to a 7:30 pace towards the end... So over all a pretty good day and I felt good for the most part, I will just see what tomorrow brings to determine how many I will run, but next week I will have to crank it up just a bit.

Average pace was 8:26, HR average was 138 (so much better) total time was 55:16.

See ya tomorrow.
