Relentless

AM - 7 Lutheran/AC.  Threw out our new plan for team morning practice for those who are still running - headed down to FootLocker.  So I ran Lutheran first (in reverse) and then AC with some parking lot laps in there while I waited for them.  It was a bit cooler this morning.  (Landreth blue 1006.75)

afternoon - 3xXC Mile.  Warmed up for 3 and then did 1.5 at Tinman while the team did their first mile.  Then I joined them for their 2nd and did the other two on my own.  The watch was hitting the miles a bit early, so I am going to real wheel the loop to give it a double check.  I'll use the splits from the watch because I can't remember the times off the watch - 5:07, :13, :16.  The times off the loop would have added about 10 seconds each time.  Although this is a harder mile than the Dirt (because of this stupid little hill that you hit twice that just about kills me), I just didn't feel as strong today as last week.  (Hyper Speed 2 366.5)

AM - 7 Lutheran/AC.  Same as yesterday; with about the same energy level.  (Kinvara3 515.5)

AM - 11.25 Clyde's. Good run with Steven and the circle before we all head whoever for turkey day. Told the story of the hotel break in and had many other good chat including one about Stan the bus driver. Finished with an extra mile with Logan. (Kinvara silver 237.75)

afternoon - 5.5 Sego Lily.  Nice late aternoon/evening run.  Kind of just went with a "because I should get a double in and what else is there to do?" attitude, and it ended up being a great run.  Didn't wear a watch or time it, but I am sure it would be the fastest I have ever run this loop.  Got going up Sego Lily and realized I was really moving, and it just kept getting faster from there.  Kind of fun.  The guy I coach with (Vis) got me on to this book and it has some amazing things in it.  Some that I already believe and practice, many I have thought about, and others that are just good logical extensions of those thoughts.  It has really got me thinking about my running, my coaching and other aspects of my life.  It is fun to think and work to improve.  (Ronin 173.75)

morning - 16.25 Wasatch/Draper. Ran the Wasatch loop, but then dropped into draper and ran down there a little bit. Was pretty tired and even a bit sore. Not really a great run other than doing it and enjoying the nice weather - really not much cooler than home. Now to go earn back some of those burned calories! (Ronin 190)

morning - 10 BST. Trail run from Hidden valley out to Corner canyon on the Bonneville Shoreline trail. Nice run, but it was super slow and I was pretty tired. Love the trails out there though. (VertK 240)

afternoon - 9 Sego Lily/9400. Went out with intention of the Sego Lily loop (reverse direction), but just started to feel decent and kept going along 13th and up 94th to the mouth of the canyon and back through Granite. Good to get the few extra miles since tomorrow will probably be shorter. (Ronin 199)

AM - 6 Sego Lily.  Ran the Sego Lily loop again.  Didn't have time for much as we are hitting the road to get home.  (Ronin 207)

Pretty good week of miles.  Slowly building it up and feeling healthy.

Goals for next week: if I can get a decent Saturday in I should have a decent week.
