Running mixed with some strength training.

Did 5 miles on the Cottonwood High football field mixed with lunges, burpees, medicine ball throws and kettlebell exercises. Pretty tiring, took about 45 minutes.

Followed by an abbreviated track session on tired legs.  Did 2x400 with 100 meter walk in between followed by 2x200 meters.

Averaged 77 seconds for the 400s, goal 5k pace and 32 seconds on the 200s.  Felt good today.

Fairly tired and slightly sore from yesterday's workout.

Ran 4.6 miles after work, averaged 6:45 pace on a hilly route. 

Had a fun dinner at Porcupine with Jing, my sister and BIL and parents.

Another night run.

6 easy miles at 7:30 average pace then straight into a 2 mile tempo run at 5:50 average pace followed by another easy cooldown mile.

Decent run, still a little sore from Sunday.  I'm a little bummed about the tempo portion of my run, I put it at the end on purpose so I'd be a little tired but still was hoping to be closer to 5:30-5:35 average pace.  I need to learn to embrace the pain better if I'm going to improve.

Hit 50 miles for the first time ever this week. 

Averaged 6:35 for this run, pretty even pace the whole time.  Very comfortable and enjoyable afternoon. Will start some track workouts next week.
