I warned Lisa that this would be a slow one for me and it was.  My legs are still tired and sore from the 14 miles down the canyon on Friday.  It was nice to visit with Lisa.

I met the BBKs at 9800 and 2200 again.  We warmed up for 1/2 mile then started the 6 mile tempo run.  3 miles uphill and 3 miles downhill.  I tried to push hard, but my times weren't all that fast.  I think I averaged about an 8:00 mile.  I cooled down for another mile and then went to work and ran on the treadmill until I hit 10 miles for the day.  It was a miserably hot day at work.  Second day in a row without air conditioning.

7 slow miles from work.  It was the 4th day of no air at work.  It was so draining.

20 very long miles.  I knew this was going to be tough and it was.  The air conditioning has been out all week at work.  Last night when I got home, my calves, ankles and feet were so swollen and they just hurt.  I was way dehydrated.  I put my compression socks on and they were so tight it was painful.  Anyway, I didn't want to back out on Angela, so I stuck to the plan.  I ran 14 miles on the trail.  Angela wanted downhill so she ran from Suncrest and we met on 12600 and ran 6 more miles together.  I'm so glad that is over.  I don't know if I have really been running enough to taper, but I think I will.
