| We were in Oceanside, CA last week and it was harder to get out and run than I thought. We were all so tired from playing hard at the beach/pool and we also spent a day in Sea World and a day at Legoland. I was never able to get up early to run while everyone was sleeping, so on most days I just sort of missed the running window. But we had a great trip and I am missing the beach already!
On Wednesday, I did intervals during an out-n-back run along the beach path and then through the neighborhood nearby. It was so pretty outside, but a little hot with the sun shining. It was hard to get a good pace through the neighborhoods and on the beach sidewalk with all the walkers, joggers, dogs, bikes, a few hills, etc.
I warmed up for 1.5 miles, then did alternating 400s and 800s w/ 400 recovery, then about a mile cooldown. Not very fast, but at least I stayed consistent. Here were my splits:
400 - 1:43
800 - 3:34
400 - 1:47
800 - 3:37
400 - 1:43
800 - 3:35
400 - 1:45
800 - 3:35
400 - 1:46

| Another beautiful beach run. We were checking out of our condo and heading down to Cornado this day, so I didn't have time to go very long, so I thought I'd just go under an hour and try to get in 7 miles. It took me 57 minutes for the 7 miles. I started out slow and easy and then tried to get a little faster each mile so it was sort of like a tempo run at the end. My splits were: 9:10, 8:31, 8:24, 8:10, 7:56, 7:45, 7:34.

| Track workout at DSU
1.5 mile warmup
ladder: 400 m recovery after each of these
400- 1:39, 800- 3:19, 1200- 5:12, 1600-7:01, 1200- 5:15, 800- 3:30, 400-1:37
Then 4x up the bleachers & 1 mile cool down
tough workout- I felt good about my paces other than the second 800, I slowed a little on that one, I was starting to get really worn out by then, bit I was still able to do an ok 400.

| SnowCanyon. My legs were fatigued last night from that track workout, but I still wanted to get up and run Snow Canyon. This is definitely one of my favorite runs and I didn't want to miss out just because I was a little tired. The canyon is so pretty! AP 9:04

| Tempo run on my own. This was Austin's 6th birthday, so we had a busy day planned, but I wanted to run at least 6 miles. I ran the loop around Webb hill and through Bloomington hills. I did one slow mile, then picked up the pace for the next 4- I was not able to run this as fast as I had planned - I was a little tired and it was kind of hot even though it was 5:30, it was 76 degrees. My tempo splits were: 7:48, 7:59, 7:57, 7:46

then 6x up and down the bleachers and 1 mile cool down. I am not super fast yet, but my goal today was to stay consistent and to keep the intervals under 3:30. It really helped to run these with my friend, Colleen. We really helped each other with the pacing

| I slept through my early alarm, so I missed the snow canyon run. I guess i probably needed this easy day, though. I went on my own for some easy miles. AP 8:48

| Dessert run/hike in Lake Powell. Fun to get moving especially with all the junk food I was eating. This run was super slow with no real trail. I found a few little rabbit trails that I followed, and then went a little ways on a dried up river.

| Trail run in the dessert behind Lesa's house. There were 6 of us, plus a dog. This was fun to run on the trails. Only once did I almost wipe out, but I caught my footing before I went down. Not sure of our pace- it was relaxed, though

| Running club long run around little valley and Washington fields. AP 8:49. I ran with Natalie & Bree. We stopped a few times for water and bathrooms. Mystomach was kind of hurting maybe from all of the weird leftovers Paul has been bringing home from work this week.
I'm glad I got through this today even with my sore/tired legs. I just noticed my weekly mileage and even though it is not that much- I think it is my highest mileage week ever. No wonder I am tired.
