Couldn't run until after work. 45 minutes just after dinner around down town. Great weather.

183 in the morning is a new low mark this Fall. Goal was 5 mile half marathon pace run. I was dropped up Emigration canyon and ran to the light on Arapeen and Sunnyside thinking of it as a time trial for a downhill half next month.

Splits were 6:02, 6:23, 6:26, 6:39, 6:29. 31:59 overall. 70 degrees and a bit of a headwind so very satisfied overall.

I decided not to use my Garmin or my iPhone runkeeper and just to run it. So I don't know the splits, but I wasn't feeling too spry. I was hoping for a sub 20 but it wasn't in me. What can you do? Didn't stick around to get my actual time or place so I'm guessing.
