16+ miles. 2 hr run on Capital Crescent Trail from Bethesda to Georgetown at about 7:30 pace.

My right hamstring was feeling tight, so I took it really easy.  Feeling better today, though.

Easy 10 on Clopper, 1:19:31.  Went out slow because my hamstring was still bothering me, but it loosened up on the way back, which was more like 7:30 pace.

Took the afternoon off due to time constraints.

4:55.0 (2:28,2:27)

Probably the best set of miles reps I've done.  Did them all in spikes, which I am getting use to, but still make my calves pretty sore.  Pretty happy with these considering that I felt terrible during warm up.

Then I got in the car and drove to Nashville to see the folks... 11 hours.  Took an ice bath when I got there.

10, Belle Meade Blvd. plus Percy Warner Park, Nashville, 1:12:15.

Thanks to my friend Camellia, who use to live across the street from us in SLC and now lives in Nashville, I found some great trails.  This is also part of the Thanksgiving Day 8k course, which is a great race.
