Today was the first day EVER that I have worn sunglasses while running.  I figured it's better late than never to protect my eyes and today they were especially helpful because I didn't start until 10:30.  Early on the sweat around the nose piece bothered me but by the end I didn't even notice it. 

I ran from 30th South North to 11th Ave., east through the U and back on 23rd East.  Average pace was 7:03, including the slow mile up L St.  Felt ok considering I raced yesterday.

One of those days where I woke up with no plan.  Started packing my bag for the gym then decided I would jog over instead.  2 miles to the gym, 4 at the gym on the treadmill, and 2 back home.  The treadmill surprisingly felt really good so I ran the last mile in about 5:50.

Route through Holladay.  Last 3 - 6:01, 5:47, 5:27

Average 6:19.  I need to get on the roller because the hamstring is very tight.

I decided not to the Draper Days 5k because I have raced the last two weekends and I have the SF Marathon next Sunday.  I am sure the speed workout would have been helpful but I just wasn't up for it.  Instead I slept in and then jogged around Sugar House and went to gym.  1 mile on the treadmill at 5:30.  Felt fairly sluggish so after tomorrow I will be taking it relatively easy.
