"A Hefty Hunk Of Steamin Junk"

Out to the T and back via canal road, I had one MP mile at 7:59 and my pace felt pretty comfortable so hopefully I'm ready for Saturday. My average pace was 8:25 with a totl time of 29:16. I will run tomorrow and possible thursday before we head down but I might take it easy that day as well.

See you tomorrow.

I was a little disappointed in this race but after thinking through things and looking back on my blog the last 4 years I haven't been as consistent with my running as I had prior to 2015. I have been more consistent since April but I think the damaged had all ready been done from the previous years of falling off my trianing. Next year there will be no races two Months out from STG as well, I think the Nebo Half wrecked me pretty good and even though I did have a PR I just never got my legs back in time for the marathon I think. So, More Conistent through the winter I want to get a steady dose of 40 mile weeks, once I'm recovered from St George. My time was alot improved from last years and if I can do the same thing this next year then I should be right where I need to be. Splits are below.
