Met Cal, RAD, Annette and a new runner friend at 12600 south 3500 west for a b-kicking run. We ran 8.5 miles up to a canyon out in the middle of nowhere. The first three miles of the run my legs were already fried and tired. I wasn't sure if it would be best to just go back to bed or keep running. After about five miles my legs were finally getting used to the uphill climb. I about died when Cal told me we had another half mile after we hit 8. We spooked a few deer as we made our way up the canyon. It as a beautiful run and it was fun to run somewhere I did not even know existed. I don't even remember the name of the canyon. Thank you to the fellow runners that made this journey possible. I can honestly say that the past three weeks of long runs were made possible by the people I have been running with. Thank you so much for the support and waiting for me when I have been late to the early mornings. My knees have been KILLING!!!! This is very unusual for me because I have never had knee issues. I went to SLC Running Co. and they told me I have been training in racing shoes. I purchased the old shoes (New Balance 1064) and I will start training in those. I hope that the shoes are the problem.... :( At the marathon I do want to run in my racers though. I will take any suggestions about this problem if you would like to leave your feedback. Congrats to all of those ran TOU yesterday. It's been really fun reading race reports.
