AM

5:30 meet up with James and Adam. 8 total. I wanted to run 3 at about a 6 minute pace just for fun on the downhill portion of the 2nd ave - Virginia - 11th ave - memory grove loop. We ended up with 5:55, 5:59, 5:34 and 30 to finish for an 18 minute 5k. Nice to get that turnover. Another nice morning.

Lunch

Another 6.1 very slow in high 70s weather. I wanted to run on the treadmill but that is not conducive to running slow so I put on some very slow shoes and ran the BST down to he Sunnyside trailhead back up and over red butte gardens on the skyline trail and down the canyon back to my office. The 9:30 guy started out ahead of me. The 10:00 guy caught me on the sklyine trail descent and I passed him back up on the canyon descent. Never caught the 9:30 guy.

Great pacing! Thanks for motivating James and me to get some quicker miles in.

Thanks again for the run and for pacing that 5k. I was glad how I handled it.
