6.5 mile morning run. Good ol' GS loop. Had to hit a construction porta-potty because of the taco's and stuff last night. I really need to clean up the diet this week... Felt pretty good overall other than these blasted hamstrings that are still tight/sore. At this point I guess the only thing I can do is just try to ignore it and hopefully it won't bother me too much in Ogden.

6.5 miles this evening. Same GS loop. Felt good, almost too good. I hit about 2 miles at 5:50 pace and was what felt nice and easy. You gotta love it when 6 min pace feels easy on a training run. By the way that really has never happened to me before. The weather was great today. Overcast all day and a small breeze- just enough to cool you down.

Brent- No wrong turns for sure! Taco's only after the race... maybe.

So sweet that you felt like 5:50 is easy. There is no such thing as feeling too good, unless you go and do a 10 mile tempo, but your two mile tempo's the perfect thing to do at this point. I look forward to having you cheering all the rest of us in after you kick some trash down that canyon Saturday.

Michelle hopefully the race will turn out great for us all. I'm not sure how fast I'll be going down the canyon, but I'll cheer!
