BACK TO WORK

I ran with the team in the PM.  We did 2 miles easy, but I didn't change in time.  I just got in the last 1 mile.  Then we did 4X800@ 2:45.  Brady, Nefi and I stayed right on that.  Mark and Kyler were @ 2:30-2:35.  We then did a mile and and half cool down.  The wind was really whipping, so I times were good considering the wind.

i decided to get my long run in today after practice.  My feet were feeling it at mile 3, but I just kept knocking down the miles.  It was quite hot, so that zapped me a little.  It felt much tougher then the 16 I did a couple weeks ago.  I went virgin river nort side/Bloomington loop out and back.  I was definitely done after the race.  My feet were quite sore.  Laurie wants me to run her long one tomorrow, so we will see how I feel. 

Laurie and I went for her long run after practice in the PM.  It was so nice.  I just enjoyed running at her pace.  We went st. james/confluence.  I had a church meeting at 7:30 PM so I just finished up the hill from the north side of the river.  I picked it up after we split to 7:40 pace just to see how I felt after that many miles in two days.  It was a nice finish to the run.  I am feeling quite good about my progress, since my calf injury.  I need to hold back a bit, so I don't overdo on the miles. 

Chad called me tonight and said he is injured.  I hope he can still run the long ones with me.  i haven't run with him for quite awhile.  Track has really thrown a wrench into running with a partner.  It is just that I love coaching track so much I can't give it up.

PM I felt a little beat after track but decided to get out for a few miles.  After mile 1, I started feeling pretty good, so I picked up to 7:35s for 5.  I did the LV park/GW figure 8.  It is starting to get hot on my afternoon runs, but I don't want to get up early until after school is out.

Rest day

6AM went with chad on the trail loop.  He is still trying to get over an injury and I had to be at the bus for the track meet by 7:30 AM.  It was quick but nice.  The weather is perfect right now.  I don't want it to get any hotter!  I am feeling really good considering the miles I went this week.  I am going to get the BQ this time!
