Ran 7.3 slow miles 8:13 AP. This was a really hard run for me for some reason. I had intended on running at least 10 and at a much faster pace. I felt really weak and my leg turnover was terrible. I guess days like this can happen every now and again.

I was supposed to do a speed track workout this morning, but I've been feeling a bit crummy the past few days. I instead ran an easy 7.4 miles 8:19 AP.

I had planned on waking up early doing a quick run, then lift weights. Unfortunately my body had other plans. I don't know why, but I've had the hardest time getting moving in the morning lately. I think it might have to do with the fact that summer is coming to an end. I instead decided to do a speed workout, probably not the best idea the day before a LR, oh well it felt good! Ran 6.6 miles some miles were a lot quicker, some a bit slower 7:42 AP.

Ran the Bonneville Shoreline trail with Scott, Melissa and Amber. I am definitely not a trail runner and was a little hesitant to trail run again after my last experience. This trail was more gentle than Diamond Fork though. Overall hills were tough but ended with a nice 12 miles for the day.
