Ran most of the run was at 4 minute intervals with 1 minute walk breaks in between.  Running pace was an 8:00 average.  Ran mile 5 at a 7:30 pace with no walk breaks.  I need to slow down this week for the snow cyn half marathon this saturday.  This workout seem to slow me down a little.

P90X is going really well!! I workout every day.  It gets easier!!!!  Today will be yoga.  recovery week

Another PR race for me... Yeah!!  The last 5 weeks have resulted in 3 PR races, the St George Marathon, Save-a-Sister 10K, and the Snow Cyn half-marathon.  I did this race with walk breaks to see if my time could improve and also to save myself so I can run the Mesquite Marathon in 2 weeks.  I beat my last PR by almost 4 minutes!  I'm a believer in walk breaks!!  The weather was perfect and Snow Cyn was absolutely beautiful!!!

Splits:

Mile1 = 7:19  STEEP down hill... I had the breaks on!

Mile 2 = 7:15 Still STEEP!!!

Mile 3 = 7:56 Rolling hills, mostly down, first walk break

Mile 4 = 8:06 mile 4 thru 7 was an out and back, 1 walk break

Mile 5 = 8:15 1 walk break

Mile 6 = 7:34 no walk break (downhill)

Mile 7 = 8:03 1 walk break

Mile 8 = 7:44 no walk break

Mile 9 = 7:49 1 walk break

Mile 10 = 7:56 1 walk break

Mile 11 = 8:04 1 walk break

Mile 12 = 7:48 no walk break

Mile 13 = 7:30 no walk break

Miles 10 thru 12 was rolling hills.  I didn't take a walk break if there was a lot of downhill during that mile.
