Legs felt heavy at the start and got heavier as the run progressed. After 5 miles of this I threw some 1/2 mile pickups in to wake the legs back up. This worked very well :). Felt strong and smooth the rest of the run. Ran the first to pickups moderate and the last 2 hard, with the last one sub 5 pace.

Took the Runners Corner group down to Timpview for some 1000 meter repeats. Did 4 x 1000 with 600 meter recoveries. The group did awesome! I was happy that everyone had fun and had a good workout. I hit my splits fairly consistent, 3:29, 3:34, 3:32, 3:25. 2.5 miles down and 2.5 back to the store. Fun today!

Great Saturday run up the canyon. Felt really strong today. Easy warmup. Pushed the hilly trail section and went quick and comfortable on the path back down. Easy cooldown. 900 vert. 7:00 average pace. It's coming back :).
