Moderate Monday

Met early with Riley did about a mile and half then looped back for Matt and Denver.

Ended doing which seems to be our typical loop for Monday. Run the upper east bench then drop down to Grant off of 21st then head into Riverdale and loop our way back.

Riley and I got going and was hitting mostly between 6-6:15 for the majority of the last half. Solid run for a Monday.

Legs felt pretty good today for the most part. Riley was living in the past today. Singing 80s and 90s commercials and puting his own twist on to what Folgers coffee commercial should sound like. Stomach was hurting I was laughing so hard. Great way to start out the day.

Workout/Wednesday

Met up with Ken, Riley, Denver and Matt at Smith's we warmed up for almost 3.5 miles with 4X30 second strides.

Workout was 15X1000. I opted to do 10X1K do to some fatigue from being sick last week. Goal was 3:20(5:20 pace) for the interval with 1 minute rest. Overall it went very well. Spot on for the splits. (320;319;319;315;319;319;320;319;322;319).

Workout was a good confidence booster. Really havent focused on intervals at all this winter so this is a good start.

Did a couple miles while Riley and Ken finished up then cooled back to the cars.

Overall distance- 15.05

PM

Another recovery run on the treadmill. Air is so crap right now. Probably the only time I am wishing for snow to push the smog out.

My 12th Wedding Anniversary today and my wife was kind enough to let me get a run in. I opted for the treadmill of course to watch the Olympic Marathon trials. Rupp is a beast and glad he will be representing the USA. Along with Meb and Ward. I will be honest. I never had Ward in the top 3 with any of my predictions. I had Ritz all the way and feel terrible for him that he won't be on the Olympic Team. Also Peskedra I thought he would sneak into the top 3 also. 

Run today was

3 mile warm

10 mile moderate tempo @ 5:53 avg

2 mile cool
