I felt good today, hardly any soreness, which was good considering I just did a marathon on Saturday.  Oh, wait...  I only did part of the marathon.  That explains it.

2x planet walk with the jogging stroller.  The first 3.5 miles of the run were easy, then I unexpectedly got passed by a lady on rollerblades.  That was no good, so I decided to catch her.  She was moving pretty good- about 6:00 pace.  I chased her to the end, then back again, finally passing her right before the last bridge.  Mission accomplished.  Ran home, then did a 1 mile loop around Providence to make it 7 miles.

9 easy miles with the jogging stoller, around Blackhawk park and multiple loops on planet walk.  Had to keep stopping to get the gnats out of my eyes- annoying little things.  Better than mosquitos, though.

Center street to Dry Canyon, then along deer fence trail.  Had to cut the run 2 miles short due to time constraints and 3 port-o-potty breaks.  7 min pace on the road, 7:30-8 on the hills.

Planned on a trail run in Logan but instead I am in Idaho Falls. So, I did my normal run- from the in-laws to Community park, 1 lap around for calibration (felt like 7:00 pace, watch said 6:58- dang, my internal calibration is accurate today!), over to the river, up to Fremont park with a brief detour to the weather station, then reverse home. About 12 miles. Started at 7:00 pace, gradually picked it up so mile 5 was 6:48, then mile 9 was 6:30. Maintained that pace until about 1/2 mile out, then slowed down on the last bit. Great weather (48 deg), good run.

It's not often I finish above Logan, Paul, Holt, and Clyde on the mileage board!  It's a sign of things to come...
