AM: Ran 5 easy with Kim then added a couple more afterward. My legs feel much, much better than they've felt after any of the 1/2 marathons I've done this year. No real lingering aches and pains to speak of. Hope this is a good sign that the downhill training and high miles are starting to kick in. I think one thing that made a difference with Hobble vs Provo River is that I wore DS Trainers for Hobble vs. Banditos for Provo. The DSTrainers are 2 or 3 oz heavier and easier on the ankles & calves. However neither Kim or I slept very good this weekend so we'll need to be careful and take care of ourselves and try to catch some extra zzz's here and there and hope we don't catch a cold or get injured. Averaged around 10's for the 5 miles then just under 8 for the last 2 miles. PM: 5.2 miles with Nate and Cory. Ave pace 8:34.
