AM- 12 miles w/ 20 min AT pace (5:40/mile).  We went out 6 miles and then started our tempo right after that.  I was feeling good, not great, but relaxed.  About 18 min in (2 min left) I looked at my watch and was like ok I can survive another 2 min I mean I have survived 18 min but my breathing started to get jacked and I felt all this fatigue all of a sudden.  I was struggling to keep my form good, but I kept my stride quick again.  That last 2 minutes seemed twice as long as the other 18 minutes of the tempo!  Oh well.  I hit my time with a solid 5:37.  Everything is getting easier and easier and my confidence feels like it's getting higher and higher!!  I can't wait for Kanab...maybe I can knock off qualifying for an event or two :-)

PM- 3 miles E.

Great job Casey! The key to Kanab (any race) is to just let it happen. No pressure - goals, but no expectations. You have hit workouts and stuff by just getting into a rhythm and letting yourself be the great runner you are - so put that into this weekend!
