Garek B Running

Chris,Coach, and I drove up Big Cottonwood and ran at puke hill. It was a good run but my hip was a little sore at the beginning and towards the end.

Had a late start this morning so I was able to do 8 miles. It was a good run and was below seven minute pace for most of the run. Then in the afternoon we did another 8 miler with some strides and some hills. Overall a strong day and my hip was not bugging me at all.

AM run we went down to Sugarhouse and did 4 hill strides up State hill then came back. It was around 5 and a half.

In the afternoon we ran down to liberty and did 6x800s. This was a rough workout for me, Coach wanted me right around 2:20 and I hit 2:23,2:25,2:22,2:23,2:21, and 2:22. I was satisfied because I was consist but I wanted them to be a little faster. We had half a mile of recovery after each one and then running back to the school got us to 11.

AM run was just a nice 3 miles to shakeout. I was fairly sore from the speed workout yesterday. In the afternoon run we ran above the 11th avenue. It was a good run at a medium pace. We weren't really pushing but were keeping a decent pace.

Ran 4 this morning, we did 10 hill strides and then did 2 progressive strides. In the afternoon we ran down to liberty and did two laps of  firemen and then ran back.

Ran 2.5 in the morning. It was a good run but way windy!In the afternoon we did are pre race workout. Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow!

Had four miles warmup because I joined the fresh/sophs on their cool down.

Great race overall! I think I had one the best starts I've had all season. I went out pretty fast and tried to separate. I think that I needed to focus on working throughout the middle of the race more. But overall I am pretty happy with my race. A few guys had the course at 3.25 so I'm not sure what the official distance is but it was definelty over 3.1

Then I just 1 mile of cool down

Evening run was just 5 miles at the pipeline trail
