TEMPO RUN

I didn't know how today's run was going to be. Last night I played basketball for over 2 hours and my legs feel way blown. 

3.40 mile warmup

4 mile tempo @ 5:30 pace

Splits-5:27;5:31;5:25;5:27

2.80 mile cool down 

Even though I hit pace today. It felt more like a race, I was way winded, legs heavy, I think it might be time to bag basketball for the season and start focusing on the Marathon in May.

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.
