am--9 I went for a run on the Heights w/ a 5k time trial in the middle. I hit 20:58 for the time trial, which felt pretty decent. The goal wasn't to go all out but to go under 22:00. 

pm--7 I hit the Rim trails w/ a buddy. At first, the left hamstring felt a bit dead. Things worked themselves out eventually.

pm--6.5 I ran a mix of paces, from 7:30 to 6:00, in random pick-ups. In the middle, there was a 6:19 mile. I was inspired by the great ones' time trial after school, and, also, the plan called for a 1500m time trial @ 6:05. I did slightly better than that with a 5:53 1500m.

pm--6.5 I initially set out to do a bit of a workout, but, between the howling wind and the still-dead legs from yesterday, I just got out for a run. Won't say much more than that.

am--12.25 I ran over to the Zen Trail head to run w/ some folks who had organized a 10k. When I got there, I waited and no one showed, so I headed up the trail. On top, streamers started to appear on bushes and rocks. I followed them, and they led me into Mo's Valley. The trail and the view were great. At the bottom of Mo's Valley, I ran past some folks, and someone tracked me down and asked me if I was the winner. I told him I was in my eyes but probably not for the race. In the end, I was able to follow quite a bit of the trail those good folks were running. I was just a bit in front of them. From there I ran back home. 

The body feels beat, and the legs feel like mush. The couple quicker days must have really got to me. Anyway, the week turned out pretty well.
