Nice, easy run to Liberty & Sugarhouse parks.  Tomorrow is 4/5 laps hard around Liberty...fun times!

Monday workout you say? Well don't mind if I do.  Jog down to Liberty Park to the water fountain then 5 loops of the park.  Felt pretty tough but was very consistent with laps within a few seconds of each other all around 8:30.  Final tally was 5:55 pace.  Finally figured out that Liberty is not flat and you can really feel it when you try to run fast there.  Then I dragged myself home very slowly.

Ran up to school and back plus a little extra to get to an even 15.

BST from Dry Creek to Emigration.  Cold and windy, and then the rain came for the last half.  Struggling to type now as my hands start to warm.  Otherwise a pretty good run.

AM: 15 mi. Jeremy Ranch run, then over to the Pearl Izumi Outlet for 2 new pairs of Streak 2's.   And off to Ruth's for a solid brunch. Now relaxing until the High 5's 5k at 5:55 PM way up on 18th ave.

PM: Race way up in the Aves, so High they call it the High Fives 5k.  Started and finished at the church on 18th ave and was about as flat as you can make a 5k up there, which means lots of rollers, run this morning was a good warm up for this.  Splits were all around 5:35, and got under 4 min/mile pace for the kick thanks to the significant downhill into the finish, well at least according to Mr. Garmin.
