Today I ran up in the valley on the Ogden Marathon course with Logan Fielding. All I can say about todays run is FREEZING!!! Logan said it was 4 degrees but when you can see crystals in the air. I think it had to be a little colder than 4. But no matter what way you look at it, it was cold. So to start out we warmed up for a little over 4 miles than jumped into are workout. The plan was 3X 2mile @ 5:30 to 5:45 pace for me. The first set was right on 5:35, 5:40. Cooldown for a mile than did another splits 5:44, 6:05. The rolling hills got to me today and I was blown!!! So I bagged the last set, I ran with Logan for a couple miles then he did his last set. For me I was disappointed not to hit the workout, miles 8 through 13 in Ogdens Marathon has always blown me up. So not to hit pace on the second set was frustrating but also more motivation to get on the course and do some tempos on that section. Logan ROCKED it today!!! Definetly my vote for top finisher in the Ogden this year.

It was good to run with you on Saturday. I would like to be top finisher but I still have some work to do. Let me know when you want to bring the family down and then we can get some runs in.
