I don't have any excuse for missing the last two days. My alarm went off and I just wanted to stay in bed and sleep longer. I need to get out with the Ogden crew some more because I am currently lacking motivation. This morning I woke up early though because I had to be into work early. I ran the same loop I ran Monday with a slight variation to shorten it. I will henceforth refer to it as the "top of the hill" loop. After reaching the top of the hill I was going to go 3 miles hard (mostly downhill) because I wanted to get some kind of workout in before racing the Salt Lake series 15k on Saturday, but I didn't want to do too much with the race being only 2 days away now. I ended up only going two miles hard because my calf started to cramp up worse than it has in years. So I ran 1 mile in 5:29 the first .6 was flat then the last .4 was downhill then the 2nd mile was in 5:23 all downhill. Overall I averaged 6:38 for the run which is decent considering the size of the hill. I just hope I can get my calf feeling okay.
