21 miles, 6:22 pace.  Ran out 9th east to 8600 s. up to Highland Dr. and back.

I haven't run this far in awhile but it felt good and I didn't get overly tired.  Maybe it had something to do with being lazy the past few days.  Go figure.   The most exciting event of the run was at about mile 16 when a large bug flew into my mouth.  Carbs would have been better so I spit it out.

6+ miles at 6:36 pace on treadmill.  Started at 7 and slowly increased to 6.  Felt really good and could have easily gone faster.

Easy run through Holladay.  Sadly I noticed that after 20 years the TGIF's has shut down at the corner of Highland and 48th South.   I remember the days of hanging out at that mall, playing in the arcade, and throwing pennies off the balcony.  What are kids supposed to do now?  Play their Wii's at home?  Give it a few years and businesses will come back.

6:06 ave. pace. I wasn't really planning to run hard but then I saw my time for my second mile and I didn't think I should slow down. Funny how that works. At least for me, if I start at a fast pace I rarely let myself slow down for the course of a run, regardless of how tired I might be or how hard the first mile is.   One day I will actually try some intervals.  That's a novel idea.

After yesterday's experience I knew I couldn't take my watch.  Nice day to run.
