8 - 7:03 - easy to moderate on the parkway without looking at watch. first mile was 7:56, second was 7:20, next 6 were sub-7:00. 

with less than a mile to go, 2 dogs came out of the darkness and started circling me. one showed his teeth and came at me. i simultaneously lunged at it and yelled. the dog yelped (in fear of my beard i reckon) and turned away. then the owner showed up and said a soft "sorry" and kept walking past me. i don't think my heart rate came back down until i stopped running.

Met Fritz and JP at HHS and ran through Sugarhouse and Millcreek. 2 miles over 8:00, 4 sub-7:00, and the rest in between.

Met Fritz, JP, and Evan at HHS and warmed up over to Liberty. I am a little frustrated with my workout. My legs were not fresh, so I thought I would do one loop at a good effort and then the second loop at marathon pace or so (hoping for 6:15). Maybe I pushed the first lap too hard, but I don't know. I was falling apart on the second and just didn't feel good at all. Loop one was at 5:49 pace. I started into loop 2 and settled in at about 6:00 and slowed up from there. I was barely hanging on so I pulled the plug at the mile mark, ending that mile at 6:15. I finished the loop and met back up with the group to run back to HHS.

Slightly more relaxed 10 with Fritz and JP. Legs were a little heavy from yesterday, but not as bad as I had expected. The slower pace helped with that.

8 + 8 + 1 = 17

Met Fritz and Scott at Arby's at 6am and ran 8 miles to meet up with a big group, one member of which Fritz knows. Ran another 8 with the additions of Josh (good to run with him again) and Dan. It was a fun morning. We ended at the house where we met the group and ate some breakfast and socialized with the 20+ runners. Fritz and I then ran the mile back to our cars.

I felt good this morning and am happy with the 7:09 average for the 16 with the final mile at 6:22.
