weird.. a Toyota ad appears next to my shoe mileages in edit mode. So I guess Toyota is now a sponsor of the blog. In which case I will remind all Northern Utah residents to visit Ensign Toyota/Honda for all their new and used car needs. Say I sent you and get a great deal.

So today I ran some 1 mile intervals up BF canyon.  from just above marathon mile 5 to just above 6. the most level part of the canyon I could find but still challenging.

1.6 mile warm up 8:17

5:58 downhill, 6:09 up, 6:03 down, 6:14 up

then a 1.6 mile cooldown 7:43.

tough workout. not fun.

stuck in boring NIH study section, 10+ hours now...need to run... I guess it will be dark when I get out of here. if  I  ever do. time standing still.... 

Finally got out at 7PM. most of the study section went to the 50 dollar a head dinner. I went running out to Golden gate. Pitch dark, light rain. my measly zombierunner LED light didn't much help. one mile warm up then a tempo run on path/streets. went fine until I got near golden gate bridge and hit a concrete barrier with my feet and went down hard on the asphalt. skinned both knees and hands. then on the way back I found a pothole on the dirt trail and went down again. now I was both bloody and dirty. not happy. managed a 5.4 mile 6:23 pace tempo in spite of all that. stopped at In and Out on the way back and picked up a couple burgers for dinner.I probably looked kind of funny.

Pretty dejected by a long day cooped up with nerd scientists and now battle wounds too. and more proposals still tomorrow.
