easy run long 3:11:22 [3] * 17.02 mi (11:15 / mi) +2799ft 9:44 / mi
slept:7.0 shoes: Inov

With my lactate threshold workouts and focusing on my cadences, I did the first loop of the Falcon Trail the fastest to date. I wasn't trying to break records just trying to take it easy for the Moab 34 miler in 2 weeks.

Kept up on my cal per hour (290-300). At mile 10 though my stomach felt sloshy. I didn't have any salt tablets. I switched from gels to cliff shot bloks. Not sure if I can do the gels all the time. I also had two 8 oz flask bottles of Sustain on hand. Sipped on that to give me some protein.

Despite crashing and rolling down the hill and cutting my thumb (glad I had first aid kit on hand) I finished and felt strong!

Walk 45:00 [1] * 2.8 mi (16:04 / mi) +259ft 14:47 / mi
shoes: Inov
