Week #11-These weeks are zipping by much too fast!
Monday August 13th-Ran 5 Miles
on the boring treadmill. I had recorded the men's marathon and watched it this morning as I ran. It's so inspiring to run while watching other people run. So sad to watch 2 Americans drop from the race though.
I wanted to run on the treadmill only for the fact that I was a little nervous to head out somewhere and not be close to home. After my 31 mile excursion only 2 days ago I wasn't sure what my body could handle. Surprisingly, I wasn't any more sore than I usually feel after a half marathon. I know it's because the trails are a softer place to land and my body loves that so much more than asphalt or pavement.
Tuesday August 14th-Rest Day-Walked 3.5 Miles
Decided to take it a little bit easy today after my big weekend ultra run.
Wednesday August 15th-Ran 9 Trail Miles
I was a little sleepy this morning and couldn't drag myself out of bed. I rolled over and changed the alarm and got 2 additional hours of sleep. Ahhhh! But then that meant running later in the day and in the heat. After I finished up teaching all my morning piano lessons I decided to head back up into the Draper hills and put in my mileage up there. It was a perfect run. (minus the heat) I spent 2 1/2 hours up there loving nature and the dirt beneath my shoes. I just wish it wasn't so far to get there or I would be here every single day.
Thursday August 16th-Ran 5.50 Trail Miles
I stayed closer to home for these trail miles and got up early to meet with a friend. Still feeling a little tired. Definitely will be napping today.

Saturday August 18th-Ran Porter's Half Marathon 17 Miles
I had 17 miles on the agenda today and so I went early to the race and ran 4 miles before the start and then the 13. It was a great race and I will recap it soon.

Wow, great job on your miles Susette! Your consistency will definitely pay off.
I'm jealous you got to go back to the Draper trails! I don't want to wait another year to do that race again.
