Payson Park loop via Canal road, I felt okay but pace was a little slow at the beginning but then I was able to get into a pretty good rhythm on the way back so that was a positive. My average pace was 8:52 with a total time of 1:03:49, I finished up with some upper body weight training ans some psuh-ups.

Out towards Gu Corner and back. Legs were pretty much dead the whole way and it was a death March but I got her done and that is a good thing. My average pace was slow at 9:08 with a total time of 1:05:55, I finished up with some lower body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

Slept in this morning. I was going to meet the spanish fork crew and run up to the Gate but I was about a half hour behind them. Damn me for being late. I had a good run up and down. I had 3 MP miles on the downhill at 7:52, 7:48, 7:48, my goal is to get those down in the 7:30 range. My average pace was 9:23 with a total time of 1:16:26, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

I was pleasantly surprised with this run, I put down 40 plus flats of flowers in my yard testerday and ususally I can't even walk the day after I do that but I was able to hammer out the mileage and that was good. My average pace was slower at 8:55 with a total time of 2:16:15, it was a good end to the week.

See you next week.
