Treadmill workout:

12 min warmup, then 2x 15 mins at 10k pace (I started around 7:50, then increased speed to 6:50) with 5 min recovery between, then about 8 min cool down 

i didn't reach as fast of speeds as last week because I don't think my legs have fully recovered from the 21 on Sat.  Overall it was tough, but I felt pretty good and was glad I could hold the tempo paces for a little longer.

Snow canyon this morning. I was pretty tired today probably from the tempo workout yesterday, or maybe just from getting up a few times every night with the baby.  I still got it done ok and it was a good workout. Ave pace:9:25

Easy fun run with Cathy. She stayed here on her way to Vegas for spring break. we went through Bloomington hills then down river rd to pick up my car from the auto place. We brought Annalise and took turns pushing her in the stroller. This was her first run and she loved it. She fell asleep after about 10 mins. So fun to run with Sisters!

Loop around Ivins again, but this time starting at tonaquint park. Ave pace: 9:07. I didn't sleep well at all last night with the baby getting up about 6 times. It may be her cutting teeth, or possibly getting sick- the poor thing! Anyway, I felt ok on the run.  Before the run, I just ate a few ritz crackers since I wasn't very hungry. I just sipped on a tiny bit of water for the first 11 miles, then at mile 11 pit stop had a honey stinger waffle. I think less food was better for my stomach this time. Now just 23 days til Boston!
