Pretty low volume week but that's just what I wanted. Legs felt bad early in the week but that usually happens when I drop the volume down. I like to call this "taper legs". Next week will be more of the same with short 20-30min runs and a couple days off. Wed will be a long drive down to Zion so I will break up the ride and hopefully get a short run in. Tapering is so fun!!!

Next post will be after Zion.
