4.3 Nice shakeout run to get the day going right.

8 Workout, was thinking two by four miles but the legs said one was enough for today.  Ran up to Popperton Park jogged around the Footie Pitch to get to two miles then started my four mile tempo course.  I really wanted to focus on making the first mile faster than normal, ended up running 21:52 (5:40, 5:20, 5:33. 5:09). Happy with the performance, but the legs were still feeling Saturday. Especially noticed some weakness in the left leg that lead to the early end.  I think I'll do some fartlek stuff on Thursday and then Canyonlands on Saturday.  Saw Mike during the run, but was a wee bit too tired to say a proper hello.

Just saw my Boston Bib number #676, hopefully I can beat this by 500+ spots thanks to running with a lot of fast people here.

Hope those quads are feeling better! 70's in Moab this weekend - holy stoke!

Better, but not 100%. Some easy days will get me fully prepped for Moab!

Probably for the best that you stuck w/ just the one 4 mile rep. Don't want to take too much out of your legs before Saturday. You're fit - time to ca$h in!

Ryan Hall and Moses Mosop just pulled out of Boston, so that's 2 less bibs you have to beat!

Nice workout. Things are falling into place.
