11.67 in 1:38:40 with Mark.  8:28 pace.

Started at the base of Provo Canyon and ran up to Vivian Park and back.  I’ve waited a long time to run this course.  It’s my favorite place to run, especially early Saturday mornings, but with the Achilles problem I haven’t been able to do it for a while.  Occasional pain on the outside of the Achilles going up the canyon.  Nothing too bad though.  More pain coming down the canyon, especially after our fastest mile which was just under 7.  Backed off and things felt better.  The Achilles feels pretty good in the few hours since the run.  Splits:

1-9:01 2-8:08 3-8:50 4-9:50 (pit stop) 5-7:40 6-9:44 (turn-around and some walking) 7-7:33 8-6:52 9-9:47 (water break and some walking) 10-8:02 11-8:20 .67 4:48

Longest run since Ogden Marathon.  Lifted in the early afternoon.

Good run Jeff. It's nice to see that you are back out there getting some miles in. I like that course too, it's a beautiful place to run.

Great job. Man I know how challenging it is to come back. I screwed up my come back with a marathon. I suggest not to do one until you are completely over this and are in decent shape. I am glad to see you are on the mend.
