I would be a decent runner if I got up every morning and started the day with a 7 mile run. Felt pretty good this morning, pace was still slow but the coughing was reduced still not gone but getting better. Hoping to do a tempo run this evening.

Big Workout #13- Tuesday Toquerville 10K Tempo

I'm starting to feel a little better, but I was still worried about this workout.  It has been awhile since I've tried to push the pace, plus I was still worried about the temperature being a bit on the warm side to be doing a tempo run.  I was also concerned because I wanted to do 6 miles of tempo instead of my usual 5. Sunny was kind enough to drive me out to Anderson Junction.  I started by running 1.5 miles out on the frontage road, then turned around and ran back .5 miles stretched a little and then started the tempo 

1-6:25 This mile seemed mostly uphill heading back on the frontage road toward Anderson Junction

2-6:00 (12:26) This mile has some downhill, then a good hill to climb, then some downhill

3-5:43 (18:10) Nice gentle downhill

4-6:12 (24:23) Rolling going through Toquerville, not feeling too good at this point

5-6:14 (30:37) Short uphill coming out of Toquerville, then gradual downhill

6-5:59 (36:37) Good downhill, but not really feeling it.

.2-1:19 (37:57) Average 6:07,

Did two miles easy home.

Overall, a good workout.  I did struggle a little coughing and seemed to be spitting up stuff more than normal.  I would like to try to do this workout a few more times before the marathon.

 Good day of running.

Hopefully that cough will go away. Good start to the day:) You'd even be faster if you were doing that 7 miles on the Provo River Trail every morning:)

Get rid of the cough would you.

Would also help if I lost the back fat and the belly fat.
