5 mile Tempo run butt crack early in the morning at 10 seconds below marathon pace.  Sure is hard to run at this pace during a high mileage week. 

5 sets of strides, maybe 80% effort and 20 minutes lifting.

 

3 miles evening pushing the double stroller, kids and the dumb dog.

Off to Provo with the kids to stay the night with cousins. I'm doing a long training run in the morning to wrap up this training week.  Could be the most solid week of training I've been able to put in for a while.

Glad to see you are having a good week. Have fun on the long run.

What Steve isn't saying is that his "long training run" is going to be the Provo City Marathon.
