I got 7 hours of sleep last night and didn't really sleep the best, but I didn't feel too bad waking up. The temperature outside was 25 degrees with a 15 mph wind blowing Southwest.

I decided to do some uphill and downhill miles and just run easy today. I ran 10.2 miles at a 6:49 pace in 1:09. I really wanted to let my legs relax since I pushed a little harder the last couple of days. It started snowing a little bit but not hard during the run. I ran a couple of downhill miles in (6:14, and 6:27) and that was not really doing feel like I was putting any effort into it. The uphill was good work, and I had a nice view crossing the bridge over the interstate to I-15.

Tomorrow I might do 13 miles and copy Adam RW and run 5-6 at MP pace to see how I feel one week away from SLC Marathon. I wish I could do this on the course.

Kory, I'm still impressed with the pace that you are doing most of your "easy" runs. You are less than a minute off of 2:35 pace for most of them and if it feels easy I'm sure you will be fine next weekend with or without training on the course.

When I do go faster pace though it seems tougher. I think my problem is I think about it too much and my nervous system sends the wrong signal. I need to have a positive attitude and confidence. Not think about the pace, run like when I do my easy runs. Which do seem fast and not difficult. I know it's weird. But whatever we put into our brain stimulates the rest of the body. I need positive and confidence thoughts in the marathon and not think about the pace.
