Left at about 10:00 am and it was low to mid 70s for the run. From home up City Creek down Memory grove and back home. I wanted to go fast on the way down to prepare for the Timp Half. Going up was 6.35 miles with 1500 ft of climb in 50:52 or an 8:00 avg. I went via the capitol and Bonnevill Road going up. Then I reset my watch and did a very aided 10k going down 1,382 ft descent finishing just past memory grove. 34:31 total, 5:33 avg. 17:06 first half and 17:25 second half. 163 avg HR (90% max), 169 max. Splits: Mile Split Down Up HR 1 5:26 285 0 154 2 5:30.5 213 0 161 3 5:33.7 191 23 164 4 5:38.1 219 16 163 5 5:42.3 214 0 166 6 5:27 216 0 166 .22 1:39.7 41 0 166 (5:33 pace) I am trying to get used to running 5:40 without breaking down. I had a lot of help, but it was after a strong climb so I got exactly what I wanted. 1:35:03 total or 6:55 avg with 1600+ft of climb and 154 avg HR.
