JRP- 7 ez w/ 8 x 100m strides.

The wildfire smoke was bad yesterday and the sagebrush pollen was worse.  I woke up this morning with my allergies raging and my lungs and throat complaining.  I took a pill and laid back down for a couple of hours. I still felt bad at lunch time so I waited and did my run in the afternoon when I was feeling better.

Last mid-week, mid-long run.  Just get it done miles, and I was glad to get it done.  Felt very slow, but that is OK for the beginning of taper.

I would have liked to run the skin cancer awareness 10k in Bountiful but it was my daughter's b-day party.... 

So I ran a tempo run.  2.25 mile warm up to Memory Grove (got a bit sick for some reason and was lucky to find a PoP at a construction site :(  )  Tempo- 2.? miles up the canyon and 1.? miles back down.  Slowest uphill mile was 8:25.  Downhill pace was 5:53.  1.5 mile cool down.  This was a shorter tempo run but my uphill pace was the fastest this year (ever?) and that down hill mile was my fastest ever mile.  This gives me a bit of confidence.  I kind of wish I was racing a fast course so I could shoot for sub 3. 

One more in the bank.  A little more taper next week.
