Early am run.  No time for my normal 6 miles of sub 6:40 pace so I warmed up then ran from capitol to Memory Grove, recovered, then ran back.  Pretty close to the Leprechaun Lope (and others) 5k route.  This is a hilly route.

splits- 7:07, 6:41, 6:09, ~5:57 to finish.  20:34/ 6:37.  (more down than up)  1/2 mile recovery.

          8:25, 7:33, 6:38, ~6:06 to finish.   23:15/ 7:29 (more up than down)

 Some ankle soreness.  Didn't feel great about these.

Not too good but at least it was not the worst of these runs.  I could here my feet slapping the ground on the downhill and my ankle hurt a bit.  So was my form poor because my ankle is a bit out of sorts or was my ankle a bit out of sorts because my form was poor?

10 miles starting and ending at 10,000 feet elevation!  We spent the weekend in a decommissioned forest fire lookout tower in Snowy Range of Wyoming.  It was one room with windows all around and 55 feet in the air (on stilts).  The views were incredible.  We could see 360° for 100s of miles!  But it was a long climb down when you had to pee in the night!

10 miles starting and ending at 10,000 feet elevation.  Dirt road and a bit of trail.
