AM - 16 Green Springs/Dirt Mile. By the time I went to bed last night, I had decided to run a race Monday night. So I skipped this morning's workout and just went for a run. Then I ran 5xDirt Miles with the boys - they aren't going too hard yet, so it wasn't too big a deal for any of us. (Barefoot '13 80.5)(Kinvara3 434)

afternoon - just weights at practice since I'll get some mileage tonight.

Chelsi's Run. 15:58

PM - 9 Bloomington Hills. Warmed up for about 4.5 miles. It was still pretty warm (around 95) but not as hot as last time I ran this race in '10. I really didn't want to put to many expectations on this race, but I did look back at the last time I raced it. That time I ran a 15:42 and won. I wasn't sure I could do that this year, but I thought a sub 16:00 would be good and to pull/push a couple of my top guys to that as well. The race is a 2 looper around a neighborhood. A very gentle grade down one way and the same up the other way. 1-5:06, started off with

Abel and Byron (my two top guys) and Nephi from Hurricane. We were moving good down the hill and when we turned to go up the other side, I kind of took the lead to push the group. It was the fastest any of them had run in a 5K before, so I figured I better keep pushing them or they would sit back. 2-5:16, moving into the second lap, we pulled away from Nephi. I hoped we could drop him and started to think we had. I encouraged Byron to stay with us and relax his breathing. Tis was a solid mile, but I let us relax a little too much. 3-5:26, Byron fell back just a little and I moved up on

Abel to take the lead so he would keep digging. I could tell we were headed for a good time, but I was getting tired a bit now. As Abel recovered and moved in front of me, I had kind of a weird thought. Not that I could have beaten him Ayway, but I thought to myself for just a minute, "I don't want to be the guy kicking to beat a high school kid. I'll just let him go." Then I kind of snapped out of it, but it was too late and he put 5 seconds on me. But finished up strong at 5:00 pace and was pleased to break 16:00. Then went and cooled with all the guys who raced for another lap. (Landreth blue 974.65)(Rocket 2 35)

AM - 10 King's row/Grass. Super tired after getting to bed so late last night (almost midnight). But dragged out early enough to get a few in before practice. Then grass running including 8xbarefoot striders. (Last Ohana 426.75)(Barefoot '13 86)

afternoon - 6 ND. A it of a threat of a storm made the run not too shabby this afternoon. Ice bath after. (Kinvara 863.4)

AM - 14.25 Clyde's. Circle run with Billy. Logan was all feisty this morning because he finally realized how much better PV is than the Hells. Then on to practice where I warmed/cooled with the team. Feeling a bit of general fatigue from the race and the long hot summer. (Kinvara silver 122.75)(Barefoot '13 86.5)

afternoon - 6 ND. Up into the desert this afternoon. Saw Preston getting his miles in. Temps have been so much better this week in the afternoon than a few weeks ago. (Landreth blue 980.65)

AM - 13.5 King's row/Middleton. Got a little extra sleep this morning and only ran 3 before practice. We had our first short and easy tempo of the season today mixed in with a 9 miler - just wish more kids were out. Finished up with the run home and then a mile with Pyper. (Barefoot '13 87)(Mana 437)

afternoon - 8.5 PV/AC. Ran to and from practice where we did Arctic Circle and weights. A bit warmer out today. Knee giving a little trouble - probably will pudge up by tomorrow. (Connect 572.5)

AM - 15 BHNP/Meat Grinders. Over on Bloomington Hills park again. Warmed up around the River trail a little and then did a 30/30 on the grass at the park. The grass is thick over there and very slow - no wonder the times are always so slow on that course. But I ended up hitting 30 before running out of time with practice starting. We ran the course and then up to Meat Grinders for 2 sets. It was pretty brutal, but made us all tougher. Long morning of running - I've earned the afternoon off. (Zero 227.5)

AM - 18 Little Black Mountain. Not a great run which was a bummer because I was pretty excited to go out there. Te floods must have been huge out there because the roads were washed away and must have been rivers and there were places where water had flowed across the desert for hundreds of meters - super cool to see the power of the water, but not good for footing. Ran one loop and then was going to do a progression for the next. Got into it and it all just felt tough. After four miles, I just stopped... running. I didn't even think about it; I was just done. I decided to turn around and just jog it back. I think I was just physically spent (and a bit mentally too), so I'll try not to stress about it too much. (vert K 181.75)

pretty solid week.

Goals for next week: race well at Enterprise, try and make it through one more high mileage week.
