12.2 miles this morning. Overpass loop. I got out a little earlier than normal so that made it a little cooler- always a plus. However I was trashed this morning. Even though last night run wasn't way fast. The 5 miles at sub 6:40 pace on the way home out in the +105, direct sunlight drained my body. I really struggled this morning so I hope to regroup somehow today and be ready for a long run tomorrow morning as I'm now heading up to Park City this weekend.

12 mile bike ride = 3 miles of easy running. The legs are starting to feel trashed. By the end of the ride I was struggling to keep the bike upright. Although I was packing a big thing of Accelorade and it was pulling to one side.

NEWS*** I'm in Park City this weekend and would love some company for a long run on either Friday or Saturday or both... Speak up if your on the fence about it.

6.7 mile run this afternoon. It was actually cool this afternoon when I started (97 degrees) and it warmed up to 100 by the time I was done. I did the GS loop with a few extra little outlets too hit water. I'd soak the hat, shirt and get a drink. With the water things weren't too bad.

I am game for whatever on Thursday morning. I just need to be back by 10 because Katey and I are filling out paperwork for the house. Let me know what your plan is.

We'll just have to see what Dave's got going on.

I've got practice tomorrow, so just do what you guys want.

From Superfly on Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 16:05:49

Dave I told Logan that if you could make it we could meet and do the Utah hill thing. But if you couldn't then we would all just do whatever and you guys could still do UH on Saturday if you wanted.

So Logan I'll call you also but just plan on whatever you had for tomorrow.

If you promise not to kill me I would be up for a long run Sat morning in Park City. The only place I've run up there is on the Rail Trail. You ran a portion of your last let on it. Let me know. We would probably get Steve C to join us as he lives not too far away... Let me know. What are you up here for?

There are some great trails starting at the base of Park City (in the parking lot) heading up the mountain, great trail network, pretty easy to figure out if you just start running! I don't live there but have Mtn biked and run on them a few times!

Adam- Great! I'll call you later or my number is on the discussion board. We are coming up for my wife's family reunion. That would be great to get Steve C. on board with us. Anyone else?
