Didn't get much sleep last night, because I was up till midnight repairing a disk drive on one of our servers at work. I love my job sometimes! The bad thing is I was checking the system out before I went to bed, because it's a brand new server that was built by others under me in my section, and I discovered the problem. Things like this happen for a reason. Anyway, I got up about 6:15am and headed out the door running around 6:50 on a completely empty tank of energy and everything else. I did some uphill miles then did a couple downhill miles at (6:13, 5:51) then the last mile was flat and I did it in (5:41) . Most of the miles were ran up by Pocatello Creek Rd. All things considered I was pretty happy with the three tempo miles. I still have a little speed, but not much. I really need to have my energy back before the August 9th Triathlon and the August 30th Pocatello Marathon.
I drove my truck to work today, because I have a training meeting at 8:30am so I needed to get there quickly. This will give the legs a break for tomorrow's 21 miler on the Pocatello Marathon course. Evening Run a half a mile just to loosen my legs up a bit. That felt good after being in meetings and training.
