  • 10 easy miles: up around the zoo, down 21st south, across 13th east, back home through the U of U

This was a really enjoyable run.  I just set my Garmin training field to only show the distance so that I would just run it easy and by feel rather than by brains/pace. =0)  It felt really smooth. Funny thing is I ended up going the same pace as always (9:24 avg pace), yet it felt more relaxed and slower.  I think I will probably do this more often than not during these next few weeks because I'd like to increase my mileage for Ogden and I don't think my achilles will allow me to do speedwork at the same time.  We'll see!  I may change my mind tomorrow. :)

Nicely done Brooke!

Our PR's and training pace is about the same (you're a bit faster). We should get together and do another long run...it was so great to meet you on Saturday!

VERY smart! I'm glad you were able to do 10 miles and enjoy yourself and have a nice relaxing run.
