Crazy lightning and thunder last night. One of the strikes seemed like it was in my back yard. I have only heard it like that one other time and I was in the Uinta's. Run was decent. Nice temps. Good times.

Went a different way today bc I'm so bored with the same old. Ran up Alta Canyon and down NC. Was a nice change of scenery, reminded me of running up Falcon though. A little harder than NC. But worth it for the change. I left at 8:00 today too. Was able to avoid the sun bc of the direction I was going. AC is on lower ground so the sun doesn't hit it as early. I'm a much better runner when I can go later. I look forward to cool autumn morning runs around 9:00 instead of stupid 6:30 am

Ran around the hood and then did hill repeats at Flat Iron. Ouch. My butt hurts so good. A ton of people out this morning. Saw several that I know. good times.

Went at stupid 6:30.

I wasn't going to run today but I got new socks. So ya know. I went to the running store yesterday to purchase my socks and I asked them about my PF. Bc It's still the same. No better, no worse. But its there. He taught me some new stretches for it so I've been doing them. Well 1 mile into my run it hurt so bad I stopped and found myself limping to the curb to stretch it. I debated on going home but decided to keep going to see if it would loosen up. It did. Aside from that, this run felt better than any run has felt in months. My splits were in the 9:20 to 9:40 range and I had a lot of energy. Amazing what some caffeine and a later run will do for me. To be fair, I did stop my clock to stretch my foot a few times so really it wasn't that time, but whatever. I don't really care about that,  I'm just happy I felt good. Its been a long time.

5 slow miles. I've decided I'm a schizophrenic runner bc I never can decide where I want to go, how long I want to go and if I want to make it hard or easy. I was going to go easy and just go straight/flat/and down and call Scott to come get me when I was done wherever that may be. Then while I was running I decided I wanted to run down 9800 S. So I ran up 9800 S. so that I could run down it. That was hard. Then I thought maybe I'll just go straight down then call Scott. Then I turned and decided to just run home. BUT I do this all the time! I can't make up my mind. Its very frustrating. :)
