I had to run around the town of Tilbury Canada three times to make up 6 miles.  I'll take the dry heat over the humidity any day.

I haven't ran for over a week due to a return trip to Canada, a backpacking trip with the family in the Uintas and a case of strep throat.  I ran 5 this afternoon during lunch to see what would happen.  I felt OK considering the events of the last week. 

I'm a little discouraged though because this week was supposed to be my peak week before I start tapering for St. George.  I have three 20 milers in, but was supposed to do my last one on Monday.  I hope to go long tomorrow after work.  I'll see how the body handles is.

Ran 20 on the parkway.  I was curious to see how my body would react after being sick.  The first 11 went well with an average pae of 7:38.  The last 9 were to be endured and dropped my average pace to 8:00.

Every muscle in my legs and feet started to cramp after I finished.  I fight cramps all the time, but this time it was nasty.  It was so painful driving home that I pulled off the freeway in Uinta and found a place to stop and lay down.  That made it worse so I made it home and have never enjoyed a cold bath so much.

I wanted to run outside on the trail after work, but still too hot for me.  Ran on the treadmill for 13.1 miles at 7:35.  It's time to start tapering for St. George.
