One run at Firehouse.  Pushed a little harder than usual.  There is a guy there that seems to be quite fast so I just tried to stay a step ahead of him.

Met Tara at the LPT.  Effort felt very good this morning.  Last two miles were a little quicker but never felt forced.  A good hard effort that didn't kill me.

Two miles at Firehouse.  Decent effort on the first, a little lazy on the second.

Met Tara at the LPT at 5:30 for a long run.  Legs felt very heavy at the start of the run (lots of squats at the gym yesterday).  Nice and easy on the way out.  Naturally picked up the pace on the way back.  Last 5 or 6 miles were 7:30-7:40 per mile.  Averaged 8:04ish for the entire run.

Decided at the last minute to run the Herriman Half.  Since I ran 14 miles on Friday and am nowhere near race shape, my plan was to just maintain a consistent effort the entire run.  I wanted to keep the effort as possible so I could test the course weighting methods that I use for the pacebands.  The course is hilly so I thought 1:35 would be a comfortably hard effort.  The race started and I settled into a good effort.  Kept it steady throughout the run.  It is a small race in it's first year so I ran solo the entire time (somewhere around 6th or 7th place).  Even though I did not run all out, I'm not sure I could have run it a lot faster.  I was feeling pretty tired toward the end.  My pace weights were a little off for miles 10 and 11 which is a bit disappointing.  I need to figure out if the map didn't pick up enough elevation change or if my formulas need to be modified.
