Why Not?

6 miles very easy.

Also hiked up to Timpanogos cave with Erica, her sister, and her niece who were in town to visit. I won't log it as mileage, but it is a bit of a walk up there.

3.5 easy this morning with Sammy. Legs feel pretty good, the weather was great.

Tempo run tonight at PC.

PM: 6 mile tempo run with PCCC. The guys ran excellent today with two of them under 36:00. The girls also ran well with four of them running around 44:00 or so. The loop was rolling hills for the 1st 2 miles and then somewhat downhill with a few ups for the last 4.  We were at about 35:25 up front, and that was after a 6:30 mile (the first mile has the most elevation gain, and we took it easy so we could finish strong).

10 in the PM

AM:  Friend from Michigan was in the area and met me and a guy from the team in PC for a nice morning run. It was cool, about 45 degrees at the start. But we had a nice run up Park Meadows with some good hills and great scenery.

AM: 3 easy with Sammy Dog around town. Nice and cool this morning. I love the mornings here before it gets hot.

PM: 3 by 1 mile with PCCC. THe first one was relatively flat, with a little hill at the end. ran about 5:19 and felt terrible. I didn't get warmed up enough and my legs seemed tired.

The second one I felt a world better. I was loose and ready to run. This one was mostly uphill with a very large hill at teh end. Ran 5:15 on a tougher course.

The third one was nice and downhill. I felt pretty good on the downhill and okay on the flat part. Ran 4:57 with a good finish.

After the cooldown, met up with some of my former runners who are on a road trip. We ran 8 more miles at a clip faster than I wanted to go. The workout made me a little tired (or a lot tired), but I hung on and we ran 8 in about 6:30 pace. Long run, but it was nice to get in the miles.

AM: 10 miles at Wasatch Mtn. State Park. IT was nice and cool, but the hills were rough, especially after 17 yesterday. 27 miles in 12 hours is decent though. It will help the weekly totals. The guys took it easy on me today, they said they are driving to Denver where they will run for the 2nd time today. Me, I might just sleep this afternoon.

 PM: 2.5 with Sammy. I really could have went a distance tonight, but I have workouts scheduled for the next 2 days.

400 Repeats. Ran 11 of them with PCCC. Most of them were 74-75 with a few a little faster.  I felt pretty terrible. My legs were still tired from Wed. and probably a little from the Mon. workout also. I was just hanging on.
