Switched monday and tuesday, and I might do less tomorrow, like 7-8. Anyways I ran 17:12 for the 3 timed miles, could have been a decent amount faster but I wasn't eating super healthy over the weekend and the running app on my phone just sucks! I threw off my pace haha, it said I was going 5:05 the first lap so I slowed down to what it said was 5:25sih and it felt easy so I was like awesome. Then at the half mile the pace it started rising, so I sped up to try and keep it under 5:30 but it kept rising, I kept it at 5:31 for a while, but THEN I came through the mile in slower than 5:40 and was like what the heck! And then it pooped down to 5:41 so I was like ok, this is stupid. So that apps pace thing is horrible, to be fair though, it is a phone. I need to get a watch, and running shades. Hopefully I can make it over to wasatch running tomorrow after I run.
