JRP 3x2w 1/2 mile recovery.

6:47-153bpm, 6:42-164bpm.

6:48-159bpm, 6:42-170bpm.

6:47-163bpm, 6:47-171bpm.

 In comparing pace and heart rate with long intervals in April, I can see improvement.  That's hopeful, if not for Ogden, then for a fall marathon.

Very easy run, more like a stroll. Memory Grove, City Creek Canyon...

 Do I need a goal for Ogden???  I've run Ogden twice (07 & 08) and finished in 3:18 on both occasions.  So here are some potential goals.  Please vote for one or more, but keep in mind that while I've been running, I have not trained for Ogden.

a-Finish under 3:18.         Possibly possible.
b-Finish over 3:18, aka don't finish in 3:18.       Most realistic. 
c-BQ for Boston 2012- <3:20:59       I'm not planning to run Boston in 2012 but I've already qualified.
d-BQ for Boston 2012 -5 mins for priority early registration....  <3:15:59        I already did this at Boise.
e-BQ for Boston 2012 -10 mins for even earlier registration....  <3:10:59        Likely to blow up in the attempt.
f-BQ for Boston 2012 -20 mins....  <3:00:59        I am not ready for this!
g-Sub 3        I am not ready for this!

Memory Grove, 11th Ave, City Creek Canyon.  Decent effort and felt pretty good.  Came home to find our house had been robbed while I was on my run.
