AM 6.5 miles from the JCC up dry creek and back. Started a new tradition of carrying a rock in each hand about the size of an apple to the saddle and throwing them in our new pile. It's 1.5 miles to the saddle from the JCC parking lot. If we do the rock thing each time the team runs this trail it should grow fast and will be fun to watch it grow.
PM Wasatach Athletics speed workout. 14 miles total. Normal warm up and speed changes, 1 mile (5:21), 800 (2:31), 800 (2:36), 400 (1:11), 400 (1:11), 400 (1:09), 400 (1:09), 400 (1:08). Some cool down on the track and two laps around the park. Happy with the workout, lost focus on one 800. High miles this week so I'm pleased with the times. Glad we had a good group there tonight it was 93 degrees when we got started and there is no way I could have completed this workout with out friends pulling me through it. Everyone ran well and I heard one say he hadn't ran this fast in 20 years. Another thought the track must of shrunk in the heat because her times were easier tonight too. Amazing what you can make your body do even in the heat if the group and you all keep focused on the task at hand. Thanks all. |
