Great run today! I'm finally feeling better today. I slept in (thank heavens, I didn't fall asleep until after midnight) because I had jogging class today. I started out 30 minutes before class and went up Canyon Rd. for 13 minutes. Turned around and pushed it up to threshold pace until I got to class. I had to have a little break while we took roll and talked about what we were doing today; something I wasn't happy about, but it all worked out fine. Then I kept up the tempo to the BYU Intramural fields and pushed it going around the perimeter. I hit my goal of 25 minutes of tempoing, then stopped, took off my shoes, and cooled down for one lap. Amazing. The cool, wet mud on my feet felt beautiful. Hopefully my blisters have healed enough that I don't get some crazy infection. While I was running I saw a bunch of white things on the field, that I thought were shoes. Weird. As I got closer I saw that they were actually birds! Ha ha, I ran right through the middle of them, scattering them all over the place. Definitely summarized the awesomeness of today's run. I did 6 striders also. Not sure about the distance, but they were good and fast. Worked out my legs in weight training and had some great pasta, a BLT, and a nice chicken salad for lunch. I'm playing soccer tonight too, so I need to go easy on my legs tomorrow.
