Geneva Road South Loop:
over the freeway, headed south forever, then turned east, and left at the round-a-bout onto this dirt trail that was half  covered in snow (that was fun because I had never been that way before). I did really well for the first 30 minutes hit a little bit of a wall and then was able to pick it back up within the next 10 minutes and I was back up at the front. Good run today. It actually seemed quite fast!  We went for about 63 minutes

Dang what a good run today!
Today we went east down 800s forever.. which entitles 2 giant hills. We went all the way to Canyond Rd in Provo and headed south til university parkway and headed back which also lead us to one more elongated long lasting brutal hill :) Not only did we do good hittin up some hills but we kept a pretty fast pace overall. (7:53)
Mile paces: 8:58, 8:21, 7:44, 8:13, 7:43, 8:01, 7:54, 7:49, 7:06, and 6:31 for the last .5 miles. You can basically tell exactly what was going on.. the beginning you can see that we were just starting out and then got faster then hit a hill got back on pace then hit a hill then back on pace then faster and  faster and obviously a good little downhill at the end of our run :) I definitely pushed myself to stay up front and not lag behind today so I did really well today

Ran for 75 minutes (1:15 h)

Today was Speed Work out by the cemetary (and vertical mile) in orem:
600m flat with 200m uphill so total of 800m x 4
First lap: 2:56 -- 5:46/ mile
Second lap: 2:55 -- 5:50/ mile
Third lap: 3:01 -- 5:58/ mile
Fourth lap: 3:00 -- 5:55/ mile (this one I had a hard time during the 600 but did very well up the hill)
Total time for the 2 Miles: 11:53 -- 5:52/ mile (max: 3:53/ mile)
After we did 2  200m as fast as we could-- man I forgot what it felt like to go full out

We did a 20 minute warm-up and cool down

Oh Yes! Wonderful Thursdays! -- On our own Thursdays
I really need one day like this at least. I can go whatever pace I need to Actually Recover. I went for like 55 minutes today just on a little jaunter down by the lake by myself today.

25 min warm-up (to orem track from uvu)

SPEED WORK -  400m at 81 seconds. We had 90 seconds rest.
We did three of them then got a six minutes fast active rest then three more then six more minutes of fast active rest then did three more 400's (9 total)
I did really well today. He wanted us to hit 81 seconds exactly and most of the girls' times were all over the place but I tried really hard and hit 81 seconds every time but the first and the last one.. those ones were just a second or two fast. The last one is a given because if we were too slow than we would have to do another so you know. Good work out good work out :)

25 min cool-down (back to the school)

*Shins have been hurting the last little while-- and mainly my left leg.. not so good. It feels like my right leg did when I was getting a stress fracture. Hopefully this is not what is happening! uh oh

Uh Oh! I couldn't make it very far today because my leg started hurting more than usual. I only went out 15 minutes and turned back. So I only went 3.5 miles -- 30 minutes

*Man I am just full of problems-- I have also been having breathing problems (only when I do speed work not distance, so it wasn't a problem today) but I went to doctors today and she told me that I need an inhaler. So I have an inhaler as of today that I have to take every day 30 minutes before practice. Hopefully that is really the solution.
