AM-Tough day out there with the usual cramp up on the right hamstring and PF during a race or faster run. Not all to blame however. I'm just not in the kind of shape I used to be in. I'm giving the taper experiment a thumbs down by the way. I really didn't feel all that sharp today.  Going to review some things and go back to work.

Ran with Sasha and Benjamin for warm up and cool down. These guys not only keep me on my toes running but also mentally. We had some good discussion on HTML coding and related programming topics. Always good to run with these guys. Later on met up with the old Wasatch Athletics crew. Good to see them again as it's been a long time. Good times and good memories..

PM-No run.

Yep, everyone used to run that race every year. It was my first Utah race after moving here in 2002.

I do the Sandy Classic now because it's cheaper, starts at 7 am, and they have race day registration.

Sounds like a good day, even if the performance wasn't where you wanted it. Can't believe it has already been two years since I moved away... All the best and have a great 4th. Raining here so no fireworks for us.
