first 1.75 was around a track doing a set of pushups, situps, pullups, or dips at the end of each .25mi lap.  took a 15min break and then decided to finish with a 4.55 mi jog.

11.5mi in about 1hr 50min.  we ran from North Logan down to the temple then along canyon road and back up the hill then finished off with the nice downhill back into North Logan.

 Garmin said it was 11.5mi, Chris says it felt like 12 so he's saying it was 12, I figure he's starting to finally get tired on our runs but it was only 11.5mi.

Oh, talked to another runner today while on canyon road, name of Adrian, seems like a pretty decent feller, he took off after a short chat and a few helpfull suggestions.

I felt pretty good when we took off but I definitely felt the shortage of miles in my training since the 15k fun run after a while.  I used three of those GU energy gels for the first time, one each at the 3mi, 6mi, and 9mi water stations and downed a cup of drink (I didn't care what haha) to wash it down.  I think they helped but it's hard to say since I was dying anyways.

Tried to run through the last aid station and drink the water while running... yeah, not happening so I ended up dumping half on my head (glad that one happened to be water.)

 We left before I found out what my chip time was but the clock said something like 2:00:30 so I think I was close on my goal of less than 2hrs/9min mi.  

Updated for correct time.... so I did get just baaaarely under 2hrs. 

I almost forgot... The Giant "Finish" sign made me want to cry when it came into view, sort of, it seamed so far away.

still felt a little sore from saturday but figured it would be good to go anyways, and I did loosen up a lot so I'm glad I went.
