A little longer run to start the week.  Met Becca at Taylorsville High.  Ran out SLCC to Atherton to River Trail loop.  Not fully recovered from Saturday.

Last week of training Cole for nationals.  Taper workouts.  Short workouts for me, but I will start longer stuff next week.  It is fun to run short and fast, though!  3.3 mile warm up. 4x 400 and 4 x 200 with 200 meter jog recovery. 3k pace on the 400s.  Fast turnover on the 200s. A little uneven on the 400s, but we got the job done.

400s: 84, 79, 83, 78

200s: 37, 36, 37, 33

I had no idea I could run a 33 second 200 anymore!

Short cool down home

I’m really excited for Cole.  He’s definitely ready.

My stomach had serious issues this morning.  I had several stops.  Hope it’s a fluke and not a stomach bug.  7:22 average

Still a bit nauseated today, but not as badly as yesterday.  Wondering if it’s heat and dehydration.  I’m outside a lot lately.  Long run tomorrow.
