Ran with Craig around the virgin river trails. I started from my house since I needed to run 8 today. Our pace was up and down due to craigs new flats and maybe the small hills and false flats helped. After I ran with craig I ran up river road. I was pretty worn out by the time I turned on 700 south. The last mile was better since I was now going down slightly. I think I am a little tired from my saturday evening run. Splits: 7:59, 7:30, 7:19, 7:30, 7:18, 7:41, 8:06, 7:29 (ave 7:37)

Ran 2 miles to the gym for a warm-up. The Xfit WOD: 4 rounds of: 400 m, 10 burpees, 10 hang power snatch (65#), and 3 min rest. The 400 splits were 6:30, 6:15, 6:12, 6:03 pace. The 400 was an out and back. I had to turn around and get back up to speed. Uhg!!!

Then an easy 4.3 mile run after work around bloomington. Feeling a little sore from crossfit this morning. Tomorrow could be a tough day. Splits: 7:43, 7:21, 7:29, 7:24, 7:19(0.3 mile)

Ran 2 miles to crossfit. I had to Garmin and the run felt easy, so I figured I averaged 7:45's. I know I ran faster than that, but who really counting?! I did the WOD, picked up my daughter, and then Cathy dropped me off 2 miles from our house so I could get some more miles in. Todays run felt good and I feel recovered.

Crossfit
3 round of:
50' burpee broad jumps
20 Russian KB (65#)
15 pull-ups
10 KB push press (5 per arm) 45#
