AM: 5 miles.

PM: 11 miles and strides. I met with Isaac today. Of course the goal posts have been moved again. The team is overloaded and will be even more packed in the fall, so it looks like now is my chance. The great battle of our time will be waged on March 30 (and the two months leading up to that will be crucial). I essentially have to run 14:10. If that happens, I'll get on the team and have a couple races over the next month to run only a few seconds faster, qualify for regionals, and lock in my spot for next year.

Interesting workout. 5 by mile with what ended up being 1:45 rest. It was slower but less rest. So there was just like this gradual pain that started coming in, but I never was going that fast. Lots of people on the track. 4:54, 4:53, 4:51, 4:52, 4:52. Weights afterward. 

I didn't feel good today. It was really nice outside. But I felt tired and my achilles wasn't doing well. Hopefully it can get better quickly.

I really need to get myself a GPS watch. The outdoor track had snow and barriers on it so I had to run toward university. Thankfully I never really had to stop. Afterward I tried to calculate it. I think I was doing about 5 flats for the three miles but it could have been a little slower or faster. Oh well. 9 minutes rest, then a 2:15 800, 3 min rest, 63 400, 2 min rest, 62 400. It was hard to change gears afterwards. Probably really good for me. Weights.

AM- 6 slow miles with Aidan after doing a little Insanity with some people in my ward

PM- Beautiful day. I was feeling the mileage a bit at the end but the wheels never totally came off so that was good. 3 strides. 

I ran 17 miles with Bryce towards Mapleton. It was unique. We stayed close to the canyon at the beginning which meant lots of hills. We averaged 6:39s which still seems slow based on the effort. Maybe it was because we were talking, maybe because its been a long week. Oh well. Now I've got plenty of time to get ready for next week! New mileage high.
