3:30 AM alarm to run Lamb's canyon to Brighton. 

Half a mile up the road of Lamb's my legs were already aching. I was worried it was going to be a really long morning. I quickly realized though that this was perfect. It would be a good long run on tired legs. When I run this section in a couple months, I will have 52 miles behind me. So, I pushed on. 

The goal for today was to run the majority of the route. There were bound to be a few climbs that required hiking but I wanted those to be as few as possible. I feel like I met this goal even though I hiked a hair more than I originally planned  the legs were sore from this week, especially yesterday's run. 

Overall, I am pleased with the run. We ran faster than I would have guessed we could have. I am pleased and look forward to another week of training.

Also, I spent the rest of the day working in the yard in 100 degree heat. Mowing, trimming, digging holes, and fixing sprinklers. Didn't finally sit down until 9:30 PM. Good heat training...I am spent!

I'll post a summary of the week tomorrow.
