I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

I met Devra at Sugarhouse Park, so we could do a track workout at Highland High.  We warmed up with a lap around the park, and added on to make a three mile warm up.  Devra had 4 x 1200 with 4 minute recovery in between at 4:10 pace.  I tagged along, and added on one more 1200 since I didn't run a half marathon this weekend like Devra did. 

The workout went really well.  We started out pretty conservatively, and got faster as the workout went on.  I felt comfortable until the fifth one, but then we were running much faster at that point.  My intervals were 4:08, 4:05, 4:04, 4:04 and 4:02. We ran a lap recovery, and then did a standing recovery until 4 minutes. 

We cooled down with a lap around Sugarhouse Park.  On our cooldown we ran into the East High team, who were just starting their workout.  I ran another two miles with the team, to give me a 4 mile cooldown.
