Easy miles on the standard Monday route. Still a little tender from the race on Saturday. Geared up for a big week and the final 3 week push before taper time.

Fun shirtless run after work. Hit some road, some trail, and some concrete, with some grass at the end. Very fun easy run. Big weekend coming up. Today was my Friday.

AM - Super easy warmup mile. 4 miles up to the golf course in a nasty headwind. 5 mile fartlek on the way back. 1/2, 1/4 mile pickups, and 100 meter surges. 2 miles easy back home. 

 PM - 8.1 easy at Golds. Solid effort but kept the HR under 122. Level 8 hills on the elliptical.

AM - Early easy morning loop around Spanish Fork and Salem area. Perfect morning with the cloud cover. Solo run, no music, nice and quiet :). 7:02 average.

PM - Elliptical hills for 6 miles to move some blood through the legs. HR 120.

Early run with Matt and Scott. This just flew by today. Perfect weather, great conversation, and a fun hilly route. We did a 15 mile warmup (<-lol), and then 5 miles at marathon pace. One mile cooldown. Love runs like this. 7:00 average for the run.
