Did a fartlek type run today. Did 1.5 warm up then 400,800,1200,1600,1200,800,400 with an 800 jog in between. 1st 400 was 1:30, 800= 2:57, 1200= 4:30, 1600=6:03, 1200=4:30, 800=2:55, and 400=1:22. Rest time pace was between 8:05-8:40 minute pace. Anyhoo cooled down-I was kind of tired after this one.

Did a speed workout today at the track. Did 1.5 warm up then did 800,400,800,400,800,400 with .25 jog in between. First 800 was 2:54, (2:06 rest) 400=1:19, (2:25 rest) 800=2:52 (2:22 rest) 400=1:18 (2:11 rest) 800=2:49 (2:10 rest) 400=1:17. Was pretty tired after this one too. It didn't help that it was already 76 degrees when I started running. I tried to stay relaxed and keep my form tight-but it took more out of me than I would have thought.

Did the South Valley half marathon in Herriman today. (starts in rose canyon and ends in daybreak) ANyway-it went pretty well. (I wanted to get into the hobble creek half-but missed signing up on time so I chose to do this one.) This was a small race (only around 300 runners total) and I finished first overall girl and 4th person in overall. This was a pretty challenging course due to the 3 or so miles of uphill-with no break. Anyway-the first 4 miles were downhill and my splits were 6:00, 6:05, 6:10, 6:20 (I was feeling really good and relaxed) At this point I was the first girl and there was a group of two or three guys behind me-the next guy in front of me had a huge lead on me) the next 3-4 miles were uphill starting with a gradual uphill and getting steeper (the last mile of hill was about a 200 foot climb) Splits were 6:53, 7:17 (at this point the guy by me fell back so I was running totally solo), 7:31 (major uphill) and 7:22. I was very happy to crest the hill! The next 6 miles were slight downhill and I just concentrated on getting in a rythm. My splits were 6:11, 6:26, 6:24, 6:17, 6:23, .25=5:55 pace.  I clocked my time as 1:26:43, but the official time said 1:27:09. (How were the times that far off?) Also this course was 13.25 miles not 13.1 miles-so if I was going based on my garmin this would have been a pr and my time was 1:25:48 at 13.1 miles. Oh well......Anyway-I was happy with it and got some free altra running shoes for first. It was good training for my marathon coming up-I just wished I could have ran with more people so I wasn't running solo the whole time.
