This morning we met at sugarhouse park and ran this route:

It was 6 miles. It took me 51:00, so not as fast as I would have liked to have went but my legs are still pretty sore and tired from the 1/2 marathon on saturday. Especially my calves. After the run I went and sat in the river at Sugar House Park for 10 minutes. Hopefully my legs will feel better for the speed workout tomorrow. (Pegasus 248)

Today we did a speed workout on the track. We warmed up 8 laps slow, then 4 laps of speed changes and 1 lap slow. Then we did a mile, 2x800, and 2x400. These were my splits:

mile: 6:25, I wish I would have ran faster but my legs are still tired from the half, after this we jogged 2 laps slow

800: 3:02, jogged 2 laps

800: 3:03, ran by myself on this one, jogged one lap slow

400: 1:20, jogged one lap

400: 1:18

Then we cooled down about half a mile to a mile. My legs are still pretty stiff and tired. I hope they will be back for Great Salt Lake 1/2. (Pegasus 252)

We started at the JCC and ran on the trail towards the zoo. We were supposed to do an interupted run. We were supposed to run 8 minutes, stop for 30 seconds, run 7 minutes, stop for 30 seconds, run 6 minutes, stop for 30 seconds, run 5 minutes stop for 30 seconds and keep doing 5 minute intervals till the end. I don't know what my total time was and the group didn't stay together very well. But it was a good run and I felt like I kept a good pace. (Pegasus 258)

We warmed up today by doing a loop around the block by cottonwood complex. Then we did 10 100 meter strides. Then we did 2x25 crunches and 2x10 push-ups.Then everyone played ultimate frisbee, but I'm not really a fan of that game so I watched then I jogged about a mile with my dad and emily. My legs are a little bit sore and tired. (Pegasus 262)

Today we ran at Liberty Park. We did 1 lap to warm-up then we did 10x1 minutes. I didn't do them very hard because of the race tomorrow. I was at about 7 minute pace and then 9 minute pace on the slow part. Those took 2 laps, then we did 1 lap cooldown. It felt good but my legs are a little bit tired. (Pegasus 268)

I really don't enjoy thinking about this race, ever. Not before, during, or after. So I'll keep this short. It was an okay race. The entire time I wanted to quit, but I didn't. My pace was 7:45, so I didn't push very hard. The wind was really annoying.
