| I was supposed to do this: 3x1 mile @ 5:46-5:50 with 5 m.n. recovery. Total distance 7
miles with warm-up and cool-down. I'm not quite to a point where I am familiar with the 5:50 pace, so instead I ended up doing the mile splits in 5:08, 5:39 and 5:45. The first two were a bit gravity assisted, but the last one was flat and really tested my resolve. The air quality today is horrible and I ran at 12:00 noon because of scheduling issues earlier. My legs felt a bit tired after a full day of skiing at Snowbird yesterday, but it's great to be alive!

| The planned workout: 4x800 meters @ 2:45-2:47 with 2:30-3:00 recovery. Total
distance 7 miles with warm-up and cool-down. My splits ended up at 2:39, 2:45, 2:51 and 2:47. Tough at the back ends of the splits, but feeling strong after the workout.

| Tired legs from yesterday's speed workout, but had to do the long run today due to scheduling problems tomorrow. Decided to see if "Hammer Gel" would work for me - "Gu" has given me disastrous results in prior races - adverse stomach reaction and severe dehydration. I took the gel at 3 miles to see how the rest of the workout would go. By mile 10 I was sick to my stomach and had to drag myself in. Totally ruined a good workout but at least I have one more data point and didn't have to ruin a race to find it out.

On snow camp with Scouts. Got up at 6:00 and ran in snowstorm anyway. Had to move to the side of the road to avoid the big snowplow. Felt like a rock star.
