10.5 after work. This was my first chance to get out and run since bryce. I wanted to get out yesterday but i was really busy. felt pretty good today although the last few miles i could tell that my legs are still tired, no soreness though. total time was 80 minutes.
10- met up with Garrett at the track. We decided to just go out on a run. we went out through sunset canyon, down mainstreet, and back to the track. A nice relaxed run and time passed quickly.

10K race in Enterprise. I felt like I was recovered well from last weeks half, But the last 1.5 miles i could really feel my legs(esp calves) tighten and knot up. Overall it was a good race for me and despite the legs i was able to finish stronger than in years past. Course was short like it always is and they had the official times way messed up. I was the overall winner and my watch said 33:04 but they had my time at 32:41 so that is more than just a slight error. I try not to complain much because the race is very inexpensive($12), I can time myself, and we all have to run the race whether it is short or long. It is just hard to compare times to other accurate courses. This was a huge PR on this course for me. 2 yrs ago i ran 33:41.
5.5 easy miles this morning. felt better than i thought i would but my calves are really tight. It is interesting that my quads feel fine. would like to get out for another run today if i can. I love racing but it does make it hard to jump right back into the usual running routine.
8.0 more easy miles before bed. strolled down mainstreet and it was pretty empty at 10:30pm.
