DSU track: 

1.5 mi warm up, then 8x800 with 400 recovery, 

800 splits:

3:23

3:20

3:25

3:24

3:21

3:22

3:20

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.
