Hard day in Provo Canyon with Sasha. Trail was very icy and snowy. We ran easy 2.25 warm-up and then started a 3 mile tempo down. Ran 17:15 with each mile in 5:45. Hard effort considering the ice and footing. Then jogged for .4 miles and started a hard two miles up trail. First mile was 6:28 and my legs started to feel it. 2nd mile was 6:52. Then ran easy mile up to start of 3 mile and ran two mile tempo down. My legs were dead and we hit 6:00 for first mile and I was ready to back off but Sasha kept pushing me and we ran a 5:56 for the second mile. Overall did 7 miles at sub 6:00 effort. So right now my leg are dead and I am meeting Sasha at 6:00am for 10 miles. We will see how things go tomorrow. |
