I gave Kurt Stevens a tour through Herriman.  It was nice having someone to run and chat with.  There were a couple uphill sections where our breathing was labored a bit but really the pace was conversational the entire time.  I was really suprised to see our pace hit below 7:00 for the last several miles.  The weather was perfect and everything felt rather nice.  I am looking forward to taking tomorrow off however.

Whoa very nice run. It must feel good to have sub-7s feel so comfortable.

Yes, feel free to take tomorrow off. You've earned it.

Thanks again for a great run Chad!

I see you're three timing now Chad.

Thanks all! I really didn't mean for it to be as fast (I promise Kurt) as it was but it really didn't feel like a pushed effort. And Burt, "there's plenty of Sid to go around".
