My ave pace says these were easy miles, but with the St George heat and not very good sleep they felt anything but easy. Happy to be in taper mode now.

Very easy jog/walk. Hadn't originally planned on doing anything but since I woke up at 5:30 and felt pretty rested I headed out the door. Hoping I have more energy tomorrow than I've had in recent days for my final Payson downhill tuneup run.

Final tuneup run down Payson. Felt pretty good and my fastest time of the year and seemed to have survived without hurting myself.
