Slept in till 7am after being up in the night here and there. Went alone and had some cloud cover the first few miles and then the sun came out. At least I remembered to bring my sunglasses which I didn't on Sat. and hated running in to the sun. 

I ran Falcon and Flat Iron Parks for some hill action. I saw Lysa and Scott at 1.75 miles (between parks) and THAT was fun. Should have just run you home Lys, that was dumb. Anyway, we chatted and Scott is doing a mini tri this weekend so they ran that tough 5k route. I really want to do a tri but I don't have a bike:(

Good run. Happy holiday!

Power Yoga 1-52 minutes - in honor of the Cougs win on Sat. Glad they decided to play in the 4th quarter. Sheesh. give me a heart attack!

6am with Jeff. It was chilly for a tank top and shorts but still awesome! Love this weather. Love running while the sun is rising and finishing before it comes out. He took me on some streets I've never been on so it was an adventure!

Power Yoga-53 minutes

oops. I meant 5.3

Left a little before 6am with Jeff. First 5-6 miles were fine. We stayed together. We turned onto 98th to head west just as the sun was rising so I kept looking back so I wouldn't miss the beautiful colors.

He pulled in front of me and took of down the hill. As we got back onto flat ground, for some reason I started getting annoyed and then I started getting pissed that he was so far ahead of me. I know, I have a problem. I actually yelled out to him something about "Would it kill ya to run with me" and he stopped and waited. Then I was bugged cause I felt like I was holding him back when he should do all he could on this run, which is supposed to be a pace run. So, I told him I was fine and to go ahead and run as fast as he could all the way home. But to let me know if he's not going to stay with me next time and I'll bring my music. Then I was annoyed cause he took me on a stupid route the rest of the way home.

So, overall nice run first half and the second half was my mad run. My feet hurt.

First 50 mile week ever! Woo hoo! Well, 50.30 actually.

Jeff and I left around 5am and ran around the hood, in the dark, with the stars for the first 5.5 miles. I had stomach issues this entire run. Stopped back at home to use the potty and went back out. Lots of hills as always on this run. Went up and up and came down dimple dell road. We saw a coyote on dimple dell. Jeff said that's what it was. I asked if they eat people. He said no. I started using my music around mile 12 cause I needed some help.

Dealt with annoying paper boy in our neighborhood. Not very comforting when there's a car weaving in and out all around you and the driver is staring at some piece of paper instead of looking out for runners. There was one we kept seeing the entire first 6 miles of the run. then later when we were almost off dimple dell there was another who was doing the same thing. We saw him twice. I asked Jeff if he rather run later with sun and more traffic or earlier with annoying paper boys. He said paper boys. He understands them.

I really tried to push the last 4 miles and try for a fast finish. Here are the results.

Mile 17-9:19, 18-9:30, 19-9:17, 20-9:46.

Not bad considering every other long run I've died at the end. So my 10+average is thanks to the hills again. That's okay. Speed work in disguise right?

Jeff and I had parked a car and ran out to draper. Finished on the PRT.

Now to taper! Excited for a new marathon.

Off to soccer games.
