Got after it a bit tonight, at least for a training run. Speed where I would like it, but endurance is on point.

Not, far but feel like it was good. Did a lip, which I don't like. Mentally or and back runs are easier for me

The run went good, just not as productive at the start as I would have liked. Got stuck behind the tail end of the bairgutsman, and didn't want to be a jerk so I just settled in the conga line. I new about the race, but thought if I started 15 min after them, and started 2 miles away from the start I would be fine, not the case! Oh well, still a solid effort. Went all the way to the top of Francis peak and them down farmington canyon to the Chevron on park lane by lagoon.

Recovery miles. But was sore from all the downhill Saturday. Could have pushed through for ten, but am hoping that by taking it easy it will give me some better quality miles later in the week.

My sister in law's first outside run since tearing her Achilles. Was slow, but good for her. 6.5 with her, the rest solo. She has been building up in her treadmill

Not sure what happened tonight. All I can come up with was mental and emotional exhaustion.
