Decided today was a good day to get in a workout since last week was pretty much just boring miles all week

Decided to do 6X 1 mile progressive

goal was to start out at tempo pace and drop 3 seconds per mile. 

splits were- 5:19; 5:16; 5:13; 5:10; 5:08; 5:05. Rest was 2:30 jog 

Workout was done on treadmill with 1% incline

Great way to start out the week.

Hate running on Wednesdays! After a 12 hour shift at the hospital I am just beat and my run feels like crap the entire time. Big time mental buster!!

Aerobic Builder

Woke up this morning to go meet up with Jon and Bret for a workout. I looked outside and it was an ice sheet! Another crazy ice storm, that is 2 years in a row. So I called Bret and told him I really needed to get a solid workout in. Anyway I opted out and hit the gym.

Workout was 2 mile warm, 8 mile aerobic, 2.20 mile cool. 1% incline on Treadmill

Splits- 5:30; 5:27; 5:24; 5:24; 5:21; 5:21; 5:19; 5:16.

 Great workout felt pretty good for entire run. Only felt labored for last 200 meters of the aerobic

Glad I got it in, but at the same time I am about done with treadmill running for workouts. Next time if I have to do it indoors it will be at Weber State. 

P.M

Recovery Day

Easy 75 minute run with no pace in mind, ran off of feel.

Great day for running!

Easy run this morning out the door at 5:45 solo. I ended up doing the same loop as last week. Down washington Blvd to the Ogden Parkway, east up to the canyon down 12th st. Then headed north back home. Added a couple more miles to the route for pure pleasure. Todays run was pretty cool, nothing like fresh snow in the early morning head lamping for the majority of the run. Glad and blessed to be healthy!
