Ran up Wade road again. Feet felt pretty good with the tape. I ran it in the Asics, which helped some as well. AP: 8:07. First and last miles were slower than that.

Great run on the trails around Wasson peak. I wanted to get 12  miles but one of trails I have never taken before was washed out and I got a little lost and ended up back at the road earlier than anticipated and when I got back to the car and realized it I didn't have the will to keep going. I was able to run the whole way to the saddle at 4.5 miles than I hit the wall and had to walk a good portion of the steep hill. This was an accomplishment because it is more than what I have been able to do in the past. felt really good.
