Track workout- 8x800 m with 400 recivery

my leg was feeling ok through this, but I decoded not to do all 10 reps with my group just to be safe. I really don't want to over-do it again and get really injured.

my splits were: 3:19, 3:23, 3:18, 3:20, 3:22, 3:18, 3:22, 3:22

Tempo run with SGRC.  I felt pretty good and my legs were ok.  I'm glad I took most of last week off.  my splits for the tempo portion were: 7:20, 7:30, 7:21, 7:17, 7:23.  It is starting to cool down in the morningsto about 69 degrees and it felt great.

Long run from my house with Karen to Bloomington trailhead. We met up with a bunch of other girls to run the sun river loop, then Karen turned and ran home since she only wanted 13 miles. I went another 5.5 with the group through Bloomington hills, then turned and ran home alone. Those last our miles were tough to get through today, but I just kept going and didn't really slow down too much. It was pretty muggy this morning with the rain last night and the cloud cover so I was glad I brought 2 salt pills. I also had 2 gus & a little of the melaleuca sustain to mix in my water bottle at the end. Overall pace 8:48. I am glad this one is over!
