Personal:

My name is Eugenio I was born near Rome, Italy, in 1972 and lived there for 29 years, then in 2001 I moved to Salt Lake City for work and for seven years and one month that was my home, since 2008 I am back to Italy. I started running in 2003 when I realized I could not ride my bike throughout the Utah winter.

Another failed run, I thought after two days of (stressfull) rest I would be able to push 4:00/k for 7-8k, but it didn't work as expected. It was warm tonight, I warmed up for a couple of kms and then I started: 4:03, 3:57, 3:58, 4:01 were my splits, but after 4 kms I gave up. I did another couple of kms just to mentally cool down and then I was OK again and I went progressively faster and finished the last km in 3:46/k. This shows how I have to work on my mental part or maybe I am just a little bit tired from the rest of my life. I still did a 5k at a LT pace.

Tonightat 7pm it was really hot, in spite of the weather my run was pretty good and I finished with a nice progression. Run near the train station.

10X400 w/ 200m recovery jog, tonight it was still hot at 7:30pm, I did a short warm up to wake up my legs and then I started. These were my splits: 85, 81, 80, 77, 79, 80, 81, 79, 81, 80. The first one was a little bit too conservative and then I was on fire until #5 when I thought I could maintain sub-80 easily. During #6 and #7 I couldn't go sub-80 in spite of going all out. #8 was a surprise that I paid during #9 and finished with a good 80. Overall I was pleased by my splits, I wanted to maintain my AP around 80 seconds and I did it. If it was a little bit cooler I could have done a little bit better especially in the last five.
