AM: Todays run was a good start off to a fabulous week of training.  I decided to head up and do the temple loop with the Y extension and then down to the park for some grass striders.  Nothing really spectacular about the run.  The pace was brisk and I just enjoyed being out side and doing what I love to do. :)

PM:  Got out around 9 tonight and did the frontage loop.  Pace was brisk and legs felt nice and bouncy for tomorrows work out.  Now lets hope they feel the same way in the morning. :/

AM: I woke up ready and excited for todays 4X1000 work out.  I read with the wifey and then sent her on her way to work while I made breakfast. ( Toast jam and water ) I grabbed my mutumbos and a bottle of gatorade and jogged over to the BYU track.  I ran around the campus for a bit to get a tiny bit more milage and then put my shoes on and hit the track.

1-3:11  I felt really excited about this time.  It was right where I wanted to be this early in my training.  

2 3:10 I really felt the pain settle in on this one, nevertheless, I stuck It out for a good time.  

3 3:13 A tad bit slower that I wanted in this work out, but still not to bad for how crapy I felt during it.

4  3:15 Im definatly not quite in the same shape I was almost 3 years ago when I did this work out last. I finished this one kinda disapointed in my self.  I ALWAYS run my last rep much faster.  Thats like my distinguishing feature during work outs.  So I pissed and moaned for a min then got a grip on myself.  Over all I was pleased with the work out.  I can just expect to do a month of *real* training and expect to bust out sub 3 1000's.  Good day!

AM: I wouldn't quite call these "Easy" miles, because they sucked!  My calves were so dang tight ( from yesterdays 1000's )  most of the run and I just had no bounce.  I cant be completely mad about it, soreness means improvement!! Woot Woot!  But I just ran dirt road 6 and extended it a bit. 

PM: Night time 3.5 miler around to center street and back. Horrible fatigue tonight for some reason. :/

AM: I woke up and headed to the bathroom to start my morning routine with a lot of pain and stiffness.  That made me a little grumpy, but good news is that the stiffness went away as my legs warmed up.  I got out of the door and warmed up 3 to the bottom of the Y hill.  Then I stretched and started the work out.

1- 1:28  I actually measured out the full distance this time so the time was a little slower than last week.  Legs felt pretty decent on this one, not too bad. 

2- 1:28 This rep I noticed the acid build up in my legs was much more that I have been acustom to back in highschool.

3-1:28 I really had to strain to get my turnover going this time.  Its not that im "tired" my body just isnt trained enough yet to get that acid out so my legs can move.

4- 1:24 Finally!! I got some balls back!! I kicked it up just like I normally do.  But still the legs just felt super super heavy!

2 cool down back to home, and then to the gym for Core and Plyo day. :)

AM: 6 out to the provo town center and back calves were really really tight. So it took most of the run to get them lose and feeling good.

PM: 3 loop back wards. I dont know why back wards its less than forwards.... maby I ran so fast it turned back time. ;)

AM: I got up this morning and did my normal routine and headed out the door.  I did the same loop I did last saturday but extended under the bridge on the trail and up by the temple. Then sidways on the mountain to the Y trail head and kept going. Lots of up hill on this run which was no fun for my still tender calves. I got  halfway on the trail I stoped and looked over the valley. Quite the pretty view. I continued down the trail and hit the road to start my 3 mile "Tin Man" miles. 

1- 6:13

2- 6:12

3-6:02

Good pace on the miles and I wasnt pushing to hard to keep the pace going.  finished 2 miles back home.  I planted gatorade in a bottle about 1.5 from home and got to it only to find that some one stole it. :( BOOO!!
