Another month.  Another goal.  Last month's goal was to run a consistent six days a week.    This month's goal is to hit three 60 mile weeks in a row.  This week is a down week.  I just finished four weeks of 55 miles.  Today was longer than planned.  6 miles solo and then a 5-4-3-2-1 breakdown with two minutes recovery for 3 more miles.

Planned on a hard workout today.  But, I really needed an extra recovery day.  Took Cole to run with Corner Canyon's cross country team and went for an easy run.  I ran 2 miles solo and then ran the rest with Michele.  7:38 average.

Rough day Saturday.  I was in definite need of some good recovery.  I ran with some friends from Draper.  They were running about a 9:00 per mile average.  My overall average was 8:36.  It was nice just to jog along and talk.  My body will probably be grateful for the easy pace.

Track workout with Tee. 400-800-1000-1600-1000-800-400 2x200.  Struggled a bit with a sensitive stomach this morning.  Ran the whole workout except I shortened the second 1000 to an 800.  77, 2:51, 3:33, 5:58, 2:51, 2:48, 79, 36, 35.  Just 1 mile cooldown.

I'm a bit off of where I wanted to be this week.  But, I am extra tired, so I am just doing what I can.  Working on two shows makes running much more difficult.

12.25 with Tee around the U and Sugarhouse.  4.25 with Lily because she needed a running partner.  So hot and long.

2 miles, then workout with Lily.  5 minute warm up, and drills.  20 minute run with a 30 second push every two minutes.  Cooldown to four miles.  Then I ran two more  by myself.
