I headed over too the running store and went for a good run with Clyde this morning. We went out into the desert reserve and hit about 7.5 miles of trail running. It was a steep uphill climb. We ran up towards the Ledges Golf Course and then back down towards the store. My legs were a little sore but it was nice to hit the main road/marathon course to finish up the run. Clyde and I didn't say anything but we started grunting once we hit the marathon course and I think we both knew the pace was going to be much faster. Our five or so mile splits down to the store were:
1. 5:34
2. 5:19
3. 5:43
4. 5:32
5. 5:13- this was only a half mile time pace. However we started into the faster pace about a half mile before the actual fist mile of tempo. So it ended up being pretty close to 5 miles at temp type pace.
This was a great run and I enjoyed the company. It was fun talking, spitting, and grunting all throughout the run. The weather was absolutely perfect and I was glad to get out. Took a much needed cooldown after the run. Now I need to watch the BYU vs. Utah game. Go Louie Sakoda! I am partial to kickers since I did this in high school. |
