2 mile warm up 1 % incline 8:57, 8:49 pace.  10 x 800s at 12 k pace with ONLY 1 minute rest in between at 6mph (10pace).  So I did  5 x 800s at 6:53, and 5x 800s at 6:49 pace.  0.1 mile cooldown. Had a feeling I should go home right then so hopped off before finishing the mile.  My daughter Amber was coming out the front door asking where to find my garmin so she could run two miles.  Good timing :D No pun intended!!    Okay legs fatigued and out of it for this but heart raring to go.  Hung over from Marathon on Friday.

Drove back around on I80 to salt lake and slept at Little America. Arrived there at 1130pm!!

Woke up in hotel at 9am.  Read the wonderful results of my friends at the timp half. Jane came in first in 1:20 on a long course. I think they said 1/4 mile.  I left my hotel on my run at 920am and headed north then east past Sunnyside Ave (hogle zoo turn off) on Foothill drive for two more miles (7 out and back) and was sweltering so stopped at gas station for some H2O.  Nice.  Ran back.  8:35 avg pace.  ran 5 strides for 60seconds with four minutes in between.  I was seriously hot!! it was near 90 when I finished.  Plan was to run easy and it was easy.  JUST hot.  Left to camp in Kamas with the family.  Fun!!
