Head a nice group on the trails this morning. Headed north and did the coldwater trail loop to the divide then headed back up the chute of coldwater then backtracked down the mountain. Nice solid 2 hour run.

Easy miles with Dave and Jared around Davis County. Stomach was not liking me much this morning. Had 3 bathroom breaks, not good when that happens.

Temp was spot on even though it was raining. Nice to have a cheat day from the heat every now and then.

Big group on the trails this morning. Ran wheeler canyon up to snow basin then came down ice box canyon.

Way fun run. Pulled my muscle in my groin again. Almost put me to a walk on the downhill. Hopefully I can losen it up and be good for some summer training.

PM
 

4.10 miles on the treadmill at work.

Thinking that my groin pull actually isnt a muscle pull at all. Thinking its more of a pinched nerve. All the symptoms point in that direction, more investigation to come.

WORKOUT|WEDNESDAY

Warmup with Dave from Smiths

Workout today was 8X(5 min/1K off) 5 minutes at -10  MRE(Marathon Race Effort).

If my workout was going to feel like my warm up I most likely would've bagged it and ran easy.

Halfway through my first set I started feeling great and was about 6+ seconds faster than previous weeks.

Overall workout was phenomonal. Average 5:16 pace for the 5 min portion and 6:56 pace for the 1K portion.

Probably one of the better workouts that I have done. 

PM

5.71 miles with Matty and Taylor in Ogden.
