What a beautiful morning for a run.. Headed out at 5:40 am, I have been nursing a bad back the last couple of days so I wasn't sure how well I was going to do with the stiffness, but after about 3 miles I started to feel pretty good, not great but pretty good and I settled into my 9:00 pace. After 5 miles I did a couple of strides and picked up the pace for about 1.25 miles and then settled back into my nine minute pace for most of the run. My last mile I did a tempo run at marathon pace to test my fitness and I was amazed at how well I felt, especially after running so many miles, my foot felt great too which is a good sign.. But now my back is giving me problems, oh well from on thing to the next eh. Average pace was 8:59, with my heart rate average at 139 total time was 2:26:08, I hooked up with my Brother Curtis for about a mile so that was cool, and all the spanish fork boy's and girls where out in force this morning so that was pretty cool too. All in all it was a great run and I am looking forward to next week.
