River Road/ B-hills loop. It was such a beautiful morning. Glad I could be out running. Nothing too impressive to mention other than how grand the morning was. 9 miles this evening. My plan was to do a mini workout of 800's. But I didn't want to go to the track so I started running around my hood and tried to come up with a location to do it. Once I got over by the Little Valley Elem School I saw their outside walking path/ track thing. It's like of a big, squareish, paved path that surrounds the grass field. So I warmed up some more and measured it off. It would take a lap and a half to hit .50 of a mile. My warm up concluded at 3 miles. 1. 2:29 @ .52 - I never got an exact place to end so every time I ended a little over. During the warm up this seemed like a good place to do this workout. But the first time I came into one of the 90 degree turns at tempo I realized it wasn't. 2. 2:28 .51- Legs really don't know how to run fast workouts and are really questioning what's up. 3. 2:28 .50- I'm thinking that maybe I'm not as recovered as I thought from SLC. Just feel flat. 4. 2:28 .50- This felt slow and I was happy with the time by the end. After each set I'd jog .25 back around to the start and it took about 2 min's. 3 mile jog back round Little Valley once I got done. Legs were heavy and slow. Did this run in my old retired Ohanas.
