14.2 1:47:33 159/182  3x2 @mp.  Ran to TOU 19, then followed the course to the end, ran a 1/4 mile + past my house and back home.  Normally, I do 1/2 mile recovery, but 1 mile works better on the course...

8:09.9 156 21-22 recovery

7:02.6 167 22-23 threw in an extra 1 mile so the last two could be 24-26

8:01.9 151 23-24 recovery with Pop stop.  Found the 24 mile mark on the south side of the road...

6:42.4 165 24-25

0.2 1:26.9 173 26-26.2

0.14 1:10.1 168

1.6 13:54.7 158 

It felt good to do miles 25 and 26 at a good pace.  I'm trying to train my mind and body to know I can finish strong at TOU.  I've finished well at Bear Lake (last year), but last year at TOU I averaged 8:56 the last 5 miles...weak.  Gatorade half way through recovery miles.

Thank you for the comment. Nice photos of your family. Did you take them?

You're welcome. The photos in my 'Wife' link? No, my better half is the photographer... I would be, but I've had most of the expensive hobbies, so I let her have that one!
