AM - Woke up very groggy this morning and was not very excited about running today. Joined Sasha at 5:00am for his big workout day. I knew from the get go that it was not going to be a big workout day for me as I was very sluggish. We headed out on the Provo River Trail (no surprise) and did just over 6 miles warm-up and then started the tempo. Sasha was doing a 7.5 mile tempo and I pretty much decieded early on that I was only going to do 2.5 miles of the tempo. The pace felt ok and I could have kept going but just did not feel up to pushing that hard today. So after 2.5 miles in 14:18 (5:43 pace slightly uphill) I backed off and ran pretty much dead on 6:30 pace the rest of the way which felt like a jog. Ended up with 14.5 miles at a 6:41 average total. More tonight with the boys. PM - 5.3 miles, 4 with James and then one more with James and Jared. The 4 with James were at 7:30 pace average and then we did 6xstrides and drills.
