First time down in the UC in quite some time. It was great to get out there with the crew, i.e. Scott, Matt, Brandon, Toni, Bryce and Zak, again and run the standard 10 up and down Provo Canyon. We averaged 6:53ish on the way which was a bit faster than usual then started the tempo down. At the start I really wasn't sure how long I would hang with the guys and how long my hamstring would hold up. Ended up with only a four mile tempo (5:10, 5:07, 5:01 and 5:18) then backed it off while Matt and Zak sped down the canyon for another four. Fortunately I ended the run in as a good as shape (minus the tired legs) as I started which bodes well for the next few weeks while prepping for SGM. The whole crew looked super strong today and the conversation was productive. We came up with the genius idea to nominate Toni as a swimor underwear model. The guy is ripped.

So great to see you this morning, Fritz! You looked just as strong as always. Wise to back off after 4 to save the hamstrings. Thanks a lot for coming down South.

I totally agree with the idea for Toni. Guys don't get much more ripped than he is. And, boy does he get embarrassed when we remind him of that :)

it's always great to get to see and run with you Fritz. thanks for coming down. you'll be ready for St George, looking as strong as ever.
