Here we go..

5.5 pushing double stroller. Sore legs from 21 day fix dirty 30

Run in windy South Weeb. AP 8:29

I met up with Sariah at 6, we ran from the Mcdonalds in South Ogden. We ended up running up a lot of hills today Woodland, Wasatch, Glassman, and another hill by the Library, which doesn't have a name yet. I was glad for the company. AP 8:26

I was babysitting in the morning and by the time I could get out the door to push my two little ones before my kindergartener got home, the time was limited so I only got 5 miles in when I wanted 6. 

Pushed the two kids today. 

I ran a 4 mile tempo for my workout today. It went better then last weeks attempt at a tempo. 2.3 mile warm up, South Ogden tempo loop. I didn't have a set pace in mind, I was hoping for faster then last week. Last week I was only able to get through 3 miles but today I felt strong through 4. Splits 6:45, 6:53, 6:48, 6:41. 2 mile cool down.

Stroller.

Early morning run with Sariah pulling me along. AP 8:20 Off to Chicago today.

Run in Chicago. Excited to watch Chicago tomorrow. AP 8:32

7 miles on the lakeshore trail. Beautiful running right on Lake Michigan. AP 8:03 Then caught our flight back home.

Early morning run in South Weber. I own the week with Riley taking time off after Chicago. AP 8:38

Woke up early today for a workout. I met Sariah in her neighborhood and was planning 8x400s. Her neighborhood is pretty flat and isn't windy so it worked out well. I wore the head lamp for the warm up but I didn't want to wear it for the workout. So we were running blind on some parts of the course. She was a few seconds ahead of me for each 400 but I'm happy with how it turned out for me. More improvement since the last time I did 400s. .15 jog between each 400. Splits 89, 90, 87, 84, 84, 83, 84, 81. The first two we were figuring out where to go.

Easy run in windy south Weber early in the morning. Legs sore from lower fix workout yesterday. AP 9:02

I met up with Sariah to do a trappers loop workout. We met at Sinclair in Mountain Green. It was dark almost the whole run. We started out by running out 2 miles on a flat road then 2 miles back, then headed up Trappers loop 4 miles. The uphill miles on Trappers loop went by surprisingly fast. The plan was for me to do a 5 mile tempo down Trappers so I could practice for Snow Canyon. I did this workout 2 years ago except this time I did 4 miles of all down hill and finished my last mile on the flat road. Sariah helped push me along especially the 5th mile when I thought about quitting. Splits were 6:28, 6:23, 6:27, 6:36, 7:04. My downhill miles were about right but I was hoping to maintain 6:45 for the last flat mile. But I couldn't quite will myself to go faster even with Sariah pulling me along.  Splits from 2 years ago 6:56, 6:30, 6:18, 6:16, 6:32 these were all downhill miles. 

Sore legs today. Easy run by my house to finish out the week. AP 9:29

Easy run pushing the kids in the stroller. AP 9:30

Run in South Weber. Nice temperature in the afternoon. AP 8:45

Pushed the little ones this windy morning. 

5am wake up time this morning to do mile repeats. I was thinking of doing 4-5 but time was limited so I only got 4 in. I had some bathroom issues on my warm up which didn't help with the limited time I had but once the issues were taken care of I felt pretty good. There is a pretty flat loop in South Weber that's a mile around and it's perfect for mile repeats. I guessed my target time to be 6:25 for each repeat. After 2 mile warm up and some strides I jumped in. I was pretty consistent with these, which I was happy about, now I wonder if I could've done that 5th one and stayed on pace. Splits 6:25, 6:26, 6:26, 6:23. About 2:50 jogging rest. 1.3 mile cool down to get back home. I also broke in some new flats. 

Run in the evening, nice weather.

I met at the Unitah trailhead with Angi, Merilee, and Alyssa. Luckily, they were all going easy. I ran 90 minutes with them, and they all left so I finished my last 3 miles on my own. I'm glad I ran with them I would've run slower by myself. AP 8:03

Starting the week off with a 10k pushing my kids. Hoping to hit 50 miles this week. 

I'm grateful my kids enjoy being pushed. It makes life easier.

I ran a 5 mile tempo on the Bonneville road tempo course. Its got some downhill and a couple up hills. The first mile has the steepest downhill. Splits 6:28, 6:41, 6:36, 6:33, 6:31. I'm not super happy with my fitness after 6 months of running. But that's the reality of my situation, it takes me a long time to come back from having a baby.

I got up early today to do my run. Quick turn around from yesterdays evening workout to early morning run. Legs were sore. AP 8:54

7 miles AP 8:34 then 1 more mile with my daughters. Long run tomorrow.

15 miles in South Ogden, the first 10 was with Sariah and Angie. They weren't going as long so they left and I finished my 15. The first 10 miles with them my AP was probably 7:50ish. But by the end of the run it was 8:03.
