My run this morning was wet until about an hour into it. But it made for a nice cool run. I was well rested from the day off yesterday so I was able to go a little faster: 7:40 min pace.

My legs were very tender for the first few minutes. Lately my feet and legs are slow to get up to speed in the mornings.

I went on the Porter Rockwell trail to the Draper temple, dropped into Corner Canyon, took the Bonneville Shoreline trail North and then took Wasatch back home.

I didn't take any water or fuel, but I've started worrying about how my body is going to react to food and water during the race. I might start eating race food at specific times during training runs.
