Noon - 7 wonderful miles on the parkway.  I slept in and waited until lunch to run.  The weather was great and I felt much better.

6:30 am - 20 miles up and down Provo Canyon with Sasha.  We did (4) 1 mile pickups (2 up/2 down) 6:14, 6:07, 5:55, 5:59 and the last half mile to Sasha's (up hill) in 3:14.  A good workout considering how beat I was Thursday. Minus the wind going up the weather was fantastic.

(1) 10 minute mile with Aubrey when I got home.  I took her 32 minutes to complete the mile (with walking breaks) which is a 3 minute improvement from a couple weeks ago.

5 am - one 9:56 mile in 30 minutes with Aubrey - she is slowly improving.

6 am - 20 miles - 12 with Sasha and 8 on my own. At 2.25 miles in we did a 1 mile pickup (uphill) - 2:53, 88 & 86 - 5:48 total. After another 3.5 miles we did the three mile tempo down - 5:39, 5:32 & 5:30 (I couldn't quite hit 5:25 for the last mile but I pushed it hard). We finished back to Sasha's to finish off the twelve. I then went out and did another 8 on my own. 2:28:09

4:45 am - 15.25 miles - 1:53:53.  Since I missed yesterday I chose to make today a longish day.  I ran 3.5 miles to meet George, Ronnie, and Dave for the Shaggy Mountain loop, covered the 8.25 miles with the group, and then ran back home.  Not to bad of a run overall, but I was certainly tired toward the end.
