To keep in balance you must keep moving

The weather was so nice to day I had to take advantage of biking weather-it looks bad the rest of the week.  I only had 45 min. so I rode hard and did lots of hills.  Made it 13 miles before I had to come home.  I don't know why biking feels so much harder then running, my legs felt tired and heavy.  

I finally made it to the early miles today and was able to get 9 total.  I'm trying to get high miles this week since I'm 5 weeks from my 50k.  I'm doing a 24 miles run on SAt. though so I don't know how hard to push it.  I felt terrible today, stomach ache and just yucky!  Luckily we ran pretty slow and mellow today.  I think it's the antibiotics I'm on right now.  

Did 6 with group, not hard, not easy, felt much better then Tues.  Decided to only do 6 b/c of the long run this weekend.  I'm excited but scared!

Ran the West Rim trail in Zion with Mindy. We decided due to snow and mountain lions to start from the park and run 13 out to Lava Point trail head and 13 back. It was steeeeep, long, snowy, muddy and hard! It was also beautiful and very fun. I did not eat enough in the a.m. and felt low on energy all day. I carried a camel back which hurt my shoulders and bugged me all day-can't decide the best way to carry water. We stopped at 13 and ate a clif bar which really helped, I needed some real food. I ate a yogurt and banana in the a.m. and it was not enough. I also had aome power gel and some jelly beans which were fun to eat and kept my mind off the tired legs. It was to much uphill walk-running and not enough just running. The downhill was so great but from Angels Landing down it was so steep and my legs were done! I think Sapper joe will feel nice and level after this run.
