Very good workout with Adam this morning.  I like running with him because he runs well and he he is a scientist which makes for some very interesting conversations.  We talked about everything from training to Chinese politics to the mitochondrial structure of hummingbirds!

All in all it helps to shorten a long run up Emigration canyon.  After a brief silence for a period and some gatorade kicking in we just started to naturally pick things up just before Ruth's diner.  I would push things a bit feeling the pace then backing off to ask for Garmin results. Then Adam would surge again, and after hearing 4:58 I decided ok that's enough surging for me today!   We pushed the pace pretty hard at times but decided to not turn it into a race at the end.  Good thing thing for me today as I was feeling a little wrung out this morning.

 But it's done and it's in the bank..

Thanks Brent, I am hopefully going to run TOU but for sure St George. Are you and Sylvie coming again this year?

Great run today! What was your average pace for the full twenty miles?

Great run this morning. I almost joined you guys as we are in Layton for family weekend with kids at Raging Waters and Lagoon, but the schedule did not quite allow it.
