1 with Leigha and Ashlyn in 10:03 (Ashlyn got around 9:50). 1 with Bella in 7:51. Did 4 by myself in 33:53. I was trying to go faster but couldn't breathe, it felt abnormally hard. It wasn't too hot, maybe not enough fuel. I don't remember feeling like this before I got slower, especially after running a slow workout and resting plenty. Jonas told me he ran 4 today. He did 2 slower with his sister and 2 faster by himself.

Did a 2 mile warmup in around 16:00, it felt hard. I still don't know what "easy pace" should feel like. Sasha paced me and Matthew for 2 miles in 12:03. I am happy with this workout but it still leaves me wondering why I am still so far from my PR, why I am regressing, and how I could possibly get faster. I didn't fall back till 1.25 after the hill, then caught up on the last 200 meters in 39. I've noticed that a good workout is predicted by how soon I "crash". Each workout it seems that I crash at a different place - the slow workouts usually get bad at 0.75. Although I've gotten a bit faster from decreased mileage and more iron, I am still missing some things.

Today was the first day of fall semester. I wasn't as drained from the workout as usual. Today is also when I retired my rainbow crocs.

3 in the morning in 25:39 and 3 at night in 24:10 (last quarter was 78). First day in my white crocs, it feels so much better. Jonas told me he ran 3.2 around the Provo temple. He ran every day except Sunday and Tuesday.

3.5 in 29:00, then 1 in 6:03, and the last 2.5 in 21:02 I think. I kicked the last 0.155 uphill, can't remember the time. I realized that I am running all of my easy miles much slower than I used to. I am doing that on purpose partly because it saves more energy for the day, but it is also a bit upsetting that I am running slower and less miles. I hope this "laziness" is good for me and not just making me out of shape.
