Rode bike to work this morning (no training wheels again! Just in case Mike or Bull were wondering?)

I plan on doing some 1000m repeats this afternoon, right after school, then probably easy most of the week. I would like to do another run down the marathon course Saturday around 13 to 15 miles with 8 to10 miles at marathon race pace.

Really good workout this afternoon.  Nice weather as it was trying to rain, had to deal with a strong headwind though.

Did 2.5 mile warm-up around La Verkin, kind of funny this dog followed me around for about mile.  Also, saw Hobie Call outside with one of his kids, I didn't stop to talk, but did say hi.  I think we will be in his ward when we move at the end of the month.  So maybe I can get to know him a little better.

Workout 1000m repeats La Verkin loop.  The plan is to do at least 3, with 3:00 rest

1-3:27  (5:26 pace) Pretty good start, strong head wind the first part of the loop.

2-3:24 (5:23) New PR

3-3:26 (5:27) Legs feeling tired, and thinking I am probably done

4-3:27 (5:26) A little extra rest and then decided to start this one,  the whole time I felt like I was running slow, but the time actually ended up being ok

5-3:22 (5:19)  New PR. Took the shirt off and the I-pod and pushed the pace as best I could on tired legs. 

2.5 mile cool-down. 

I feel pretty good about this workout and plan on taking it easy for the next few days and then do another workout on Saturday.
