Elevation

Boise, ID 2,700

Salt Lake City, UT 4,200

Twin Falls, ID 3,700

I ran on treadmills in hotels at each of these places the last few days. Basically I did 5k setting the pace around 8:30 miles. I was just looking to get s a quick workout in before driving some more. It didn't occur to me until the final day that I was also running at some elevation. That made me feel better about the short distance. It was also a lot of fun to have Brianna with me either walking on a treadmill or using one of the other machines. (she had to check them all out of course.)

This morning I went out and felt GREAT. The legs felt light (although by the middle I noticed my right knee again, don't know whats up with that yet.) I came in after 6 miles to find my average pace was, yep 8:30 per mile!

Wow, that occasional speed work helps.
