Step by step, mile by mile

AM - 5. 

PM - shakeout w a couple easy strides!

AM - Looong workout this AM. 6xk, 4xk, 1xk. 2 minutes rest between repeats and about an 800 between sets. Hit 3:21, 3:22, 3:18, 3:19, 3:14, 3:07 for set one. Second set I decided to let off the gas a bit to have a quicker last set(originally it was 2xk but I could feel my legs tightening up, the arms dinosauring, etc that last 400). Set 2 I ran 3:23, 3:17, 3:16, 3:05. Last one I ran 2:53. I think I might have cut the corners a bit tight(there weren't any markers down so I could have been a little off). So the times are taken with a grain of salt, but the point was to get some good aerobic work and I accomplished that for sure. Never done over 5 miles of work in a single session so running 7 miles was a def plus. Good stuff! 

PM - shakeout, 6:54 pace. Felt pretty good considering all the mileage I did this morning. I'll have to thank the creek I iced in for that.

AM - 10 up and down Jackalope. By far my favorite running conditions out this morning, 60 degrees, overcast and dark, and drizzling. Kept an honest pace going up and beat my PR on the ascent by almost 3 minutes, 32 minutes for the 3.8 miles w/ 1200 ft gain. Went to the overlook of Vernal and yelled "Drago" and ran back down, the long way. No one else was there when I arrived, no one when I left. Just a lone runner, the rain, and one hell of a trail.

AM - 6

PM - speed with Trevor. Fun to see the big shot college bball player struggle after showing me up in lifting. 300, 300, 200, 200, 150, 150. Went 41, 41, 27, 26, 19, 19. All on the higher side second-wise. Took 500m rest after the 300's, 200 after the 200's, 150 after the 150's. Prior to tonight I thought I'd try to be in 54 second 400 shape by Christmas break. Those 300's would have been 55's if I finished the last 100(I could have). Happy with my speed, but I gotta buckle down on strength, it has a lot more room to improve. CD for 12 for the day.

AM - 4 + a long lifting session since I had the 24 hour gym to myself. I'm typing this a few hours after and I'm pretty sore. Did everything.

PM - run with trevor + core. He stopped to pee about 2 miles in so I went 6:15 pace the rest of the way back.

AM - 3 mile shakeout before driving up to SLC to buy a college car. Ended up being a bust so all I got was extremely tired and some very tight legs from around 10 hours in a car, so I just went to sleep as soon as I got back home.

AM - 5. Hamstrings felt very tight from the car ride the first couple miles, but it felt good to loosen up a little.

Noon - ran a mile w trevor at about 6:10 pace, lifted, did four more miles alone after with 2 400's at tempo pace to get the legs loose(81, 81). Hamstrings finally starting to loosen up. Swam later that day so very proactive. Good to help loosen up the legs. S/O to Parker Stintson for @-ing me on Instagram
