Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
15.20	0.00	15.20

Long slow run today. 15 miles out past Sky Ranch and into the desert a couple of miles out and back. Felt fatigued at first from yesterdays run, but as my body warmed up and figured out I wasn't going to give up I started feeling better...7:00 pace average exactly, with some variation. First 2 miles were consistent and most of the rest of the run was too, but I got going pretty good towards the middle but the last couple of miles were a struggle, though I did manage to run the last one at 7 min. even. Felt way good considering this is the longest run I've done since getting back off the mish...now lets see if I can recover from it :) I should do fine as I have over 50 hours 'til the next time I run (mon. evening). Exceeded my goal for the week, but not by too much, so that's good too.

Oh, and this will probably be my last blog for about a week...I'm going camping and exploring ghost towns out in the West Desert by Nephi with my uncle and cousin and my dad...but I will be running. No access to a computer out there :) Should be some sweet trails and I plan for 60 miles next week.

Good job this week. I actually passed you finishing up this morning. My wife drove me out past Sky Ranch to the end of the pavement and then I did a nice 9 mile run back to my house. I enjoy running out on that road and just like you I averaged 6:58, however that was only going 9 miles, I don't think I could have handled 15 this morning. I started at about 11 so I got a little hot toward the end. Have fun next week.

Great miles man, and great run today. You are really doing good and smart in easing into the high mileage. We need to go running more when you get back. Have fun on the camping trip and see you later.
