run, run, run

Boise, ID 6:15am

Warm up run to the middle school and 10x400 repeats. I've never really done a track workout before. My pace was pretty consistent every time 1:26 to 1:29. Then a cool down run home.

Boise, ID 7am

Pace: 8

I had an early meeting so I wouldn't get a nap. So I waited and ran 45 minutes later (I know that doesn't make any sense). Just an easy 7 miler.

Randy's training schedule called for 5 miles at 6:35 pace. Well, I knew that wasn't going to happen. But after a mile warmup I was able to hold a 6:40 pace for two miles. Then I slowed down to 7 and then 7:30. Randy kept going at the faster pace and I had to meet up with him at Ustick Road. It was a good workout, but I still have some work to do.

Going long tomorrow, so I did 3 easy miles today just because.

Ogden long run #2 worked out much better than #1. Randy is on a half-marathon training plan that had him doing 15 miles today. So I did that and then 5 more. Felt really good. Kept the pace under 8mpm and my final mile was the fastest at 7:33.

Did our usual 7-mile route but added a couple by running around the HP campus. Then did the morning route again. The sun came up when we started our second loop so the scenery changed a bit.

Ate one pancake before running, a half a pbj at mile 9 and most of the other half at 15.5.

Didn't feel like death at the end. That's progress.

Pace: 7:31

Just a short recovery run. Ended up having more energy than I expected and held a good pace all of the way through.
