| Ran to 2300 East, down to the river bottoms, across the tree street to PowerHouse road, followed the road past the golf course clubhouse and the Chevron on Hwy 6 before turning onto Canyon Road. Followed Canyon to 1400 East, turned to 1700 East near Canyon Elementary before coming home. Next time I run 8 miles I think I'll branch west onto the running trail that crosses the tree street (Doing an out and back on that trail will give me about a mile) so that I don't have to wander at the end of the run to hit the desired distance. I also need to figure something out regarding water - I was getting thirsty by the end. Finished in 1:16:14 (9:21 avg). Splits were 10:00, 9:07, 9:40, 9:35, 9:37, 8:56, 9:05, 8:56. | | Add Comment |

| Ran my typical 5 mile route (Riverbottoms to 3400 East, Canyon to 1700 E then home). Finished in 45:11 (9:02 avg). Splits were 9:08, 9:30, 9:26, 8:51, 8:17. I didn't really "push" at the end, though my pace got faster. Part was a function of coming down hill, the other part was that it just felt good to let myself run at a faster pace. | | Add Comment |

I typically treat my Saturday run like I would a Sunday drive - Easy pace, no goals but distance. It usually means that the run is relaxing and that I don't feel too worked when I get done. I don't know what happened today. I kept the pace easy, but had a really hard time finishing. I didn't get much sleep the night before (The kids & I slept in the backyard), and it was hotter than I was prepared for (Not enough water). Hopefully next week will be better. I ran the tree street and up/down the trails, up to Canyon View Park via Powerhouse Road before hitting the trails again, then out of the riverbottoms and back home. Total time was 1:40:27 (10:03 pace). Splits were 9:07, 9:34, 9:43, 9:32, 10:06, 10:26, 10:26, 10:17, 10:04, 11:11.
