Personal:
I have five brothers and five sisters,
all younger. I'm currently a PhD Student in the CSEM (computational science) program at UT Austin. Married, no kids (yet). I've been dealing with some issues in running the last few years, and am trying to get back into top shape.
Did a 6x1000 workout with 200 recovery. Alternated going up and down the canyon. On the uphil I got 3:19, 3:17, and 3:13. The downhill intervals were in 3:00, 2:59, and 2:57.
Today did 3 x 2 miles. Down, then up, then down. 10:05 (5:02, 5:03), then 11:24 (5:43, 5:41) and finished in 9:52 (4:58 and 4:54). Zach, a friend who lives in the same apartment complex as me, did the first mile of each interval. Total of 16 miles.
