Believe to Achieve

This was supposed to be 8 miles then while running I decided to run out to five miles from my campsite--- well then there never was a turn off to the right again so  I ran all the way to the highway that passes thru Heber City --- yay--- 2.5 miles on the highway with many a eighteen wheeler.  I am like "holy moly Julie where is the beauty of yesterday's run?"  finally there was a dirt road turn off (1200 north off the highway) that I took back towards camp only it didn't resume straight after two miles you had to turn right or left.  Right looked quicker (the mountains helping my sense of direction) but then it turned right again after a half mile and well.... don't want to head back to the highway again so I turned around.  Basically I am running a on farmland dirt roads for 4 plus miles.  Flat to slightly uphill in the middle of Heber/Midway.  I went back to the crossroads and tried the left turn.  I ended up on Main street Midway where I ran the last leg of the Ragnar relay.  In fact mile five of my run was Jorge's leg of the run--- if only I knew where he had turned then I wouldn't have ended up at the highway (this is in reverse of his direction).  I ran toward town and decided I would finish at the 7-11 and call my husband as I knew from there it was still 3.5 to 4 miles home.  I was at 15 miles when I got there.  Now don't get me wrong I could have run it but I have my 18 miler planned for Saturday and I don't want to unleash the running demon just yet!!  :D.    Pelvis a little achy in this run due to the dirt and street terrain in my mirage 2s and absolutely no hydration or fuel since the Granny's shake the night before at about 8pm.   Thankfully my husband swiftly came and got me while I was sipping ice water from the local  grocery store.  Sweet life :D.     Soccer Tournament game for Brooke this afternoon. Off to the heat in SLC at 2pm.  Work the next two days.  15 miles  easy pace (never pushed pace) =  AP 8:11.   btw I think the elevation is a bit higher-- the air felt thicker to breath in.  Troy thinks 7,000 feet.  I think 6,600.  I guess I will look it up sometime.  Anyone know Midway's elev?
