Here we go..

Ran 2.55 miles at 9:03 pace. I still felt my injury a little bit.

I only ran once last week. We were at a family reunion all week doing different activities. I thought it was a good opportunity to not run and see if I can get rid of that injury completely. It seemed to help because today I didn't feel it at all and had a good run with Riley. My pace was 8:13 but I threw in some 1 minute surges. I did 4 of them. My first surge put me down at 7:10 pace, my second I didn't see, my 3rd was just under 7 minute pace, and my last one was my longest and fastest. I finished with a quarter mile at 6:25 pace. It was a pretty encouraging run.

I pushed the kids this morning in the stroller. I was feeling sore and tired from yesterday's little workout. I ran an average pace of 9:39. My splits were:

9:52

9:19

9:43

Ran in the heat of the afternoon. My average pace was 8:28. I did 4 x 1 minute surges again. My pace for the first one was 6:11, second 7:11, third 7:00, and fourth 6:05. My two middle surges were uphill. I rested 3 minutes between each surge. Overall, a good workout for me.

I pushed the kids this morning. I was sore from yesterday but I think most of my soreness is coming from the 20 minutes Insanity workout I've been doing. My average pace today was 9:27.

I ran 5 miles in South Weber today. My average pace was 8:43.

Ran this morning in South Weber. I averaged 8:31 pace but I also did 5x1minute pick ups in my run.

My first pick up started on a hill and the pace got down to 7:31, my next was 6:38, then 6:11, 6:09, 6:20.

Felt pretty good this morning.

Pushed the girls this morning around South Weber. Average pace was 9:19.

This morning I had my sister in law watch the kids while I met up with Sariah and Katie to run a tempo run. It was a tempo run for me and an easier run for them. They were pushing kids. I did 1 mile warm up, 3 miles of tempo, then 1.5 miles of cool down. Sariah was helpful in getting me through. I didn't know how fast I should start out so Riley suggested 7:15. That was the goal I set for myself.

My mile splits:

7:08

7:14

6:38, this mile was downhill but was the same effort as the earlier ones.

I'm pretty happy with this workout.

Pushed the kids today around South Weber. Averaged 9:15 pace. I was a little sore from yesterdays workout.

I woke up today with a head cold and felt crummy all day. By 5:30 I thought I was feeling well enough to go for a run, hoping going outside in the heat of the day will remind my body that it's summer and not winter. But I felt sluggish, tired, and I think I made my cold worse. My pace was 9:06

Pushed the kids in South Weber today. I'm still battling a bad cold. pace 9:14

I met up with Sariah this morning at the parkway, we pushed the kids. I averaged 8:45 pace. Luckily she has a race tomorrow so she wasn't worried about how fast she was going.

Riley and I ran on the parkway this afternoon, he had already run a race this morning but decided to do a shake out run with me. He pushed the kids. My average pace today was 7:57.
