Drove up to the Provo canyon with my dad. I ran two warm up miles up the canyon, then did three down hard. My splits were 87, 82, 82, 82 (5:33 mile), 83, 89, 86, 87 (5:45 mile, 11:18 two miles (a PR for two miles)), 89, 90, 85 and 76! Turns out I had a kick after all! I did the last mile in 5:40 and the last half mile in 2:41. Total time for three miles was 16:58 (a PR). The last quarter in 76 was possibly the most miserable quarter of my life. I felt like throwing up for the last 1200. Anyway, the 6-minute mile guy and the 5:40 guy were shown who's boss. |
