Did 6x800 during my planning period, pretty nice temperature outside not too hot, but still warm, wanted to get this workout in before running with the team tonight. It has been good coaching, but at times I feel like I have altered my original marathon training program to do workouts with the kids. Anyway ran the following splits with a 400 meter jog recovery between

1-2:43

2-2:42

3-2:44

4-2:43

5-2:46- starting to hurt

6-2:47- hip flexor bothering me a little on the last one, so I eased up the last 200 meters. 1 mile warm-up, 1.5 miles recovery and .5 cool-down, will now go do some more easy miles while timing the cross country team during their workout. Ran .5 warm-up, then did 2x800 with the team, the kids were doing 5, but since I had done some earlier I just ran 2 to help pace the kids along.

Good work on your track workouts. I'm glad your healing up nice and fast. Those were the biggest blisters I've ever laid my eyes on. It's amazing that your almost heald. You must be living right.

I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do on race day. I guess just run as fast as I can for 26.2 miles without passing out and hope for a good time.

Dustin, do you think these shoes are ok to run with every day for training? If we Run from the top of the snow canyon entrance to the park it is 10 miles. or we could run from the bridge in Winchester hills to the park after the race.
