Ran over to shady lane park and did 2x4 minute tempo followed by 5x1000m, some reps on the grass and some on the sidewalk/road. Then cooled down 3 miles. Tempo was at like 5:30-5:40 and the ks averaged 5:25 pace.

Ran with Jake and Kolten at 6:30am and did 18 minute tempo, 2 min recovery, 16 minute tempo. Was not feeling it today. I averaged 5:50 for the 18 minute and then I had to duck out during the 16 minute tempo to go meet Becca and ran down some mining road from the canal road, it was a little too steep to run optimally fast and I averaged maybe like 6:30 for the 2nd tempo... just good to get mileage really. Then after meeting and swapping cars with Becca I drove over and cooled down for a mile of stroller running.

Also had to run a stroller mile home from dropping my car off at the shop, and then the same thing back to pick it up a couple hours later.
