Mile warm up and then 2x1 mile at goal 5k pace for this thanksgiving. Goal was to run under 5:45 per mile. I ran 5:39 and 5:43. First one felt really good but the 2nd one was harder than I was hoping it would be. Probably too close to my workout on saturday, but I felt like doing something faster today. I'll do an easy run on tuesday or wednesday and then either 800s, 1 ks, or a sub 18 3 mile on Thursday. Just trying out some different workouts and feeling which I like most these days. So far the 2x2 mile workout was the most fun for me, but also maybe the easiest.

Sub 18 at the thanksgiving 5k is going to be a tall order on the tough cottonwood heights course, but I'll only get into better shape before then as long as I keep running.
