Average 38s Tough workout that really got me fatigued today, but I'm glad I was able to be fairly consistent and finish strong. My legs are very sore and calves are tight. I'm going to have to do some rolling this evening.

I was sore from yesterday's workout but it was still a good run. Now the meat behind my shins just above the ankles is sore. I did a lot of rolling yesterday and I'm sure I'll have to do some today. I might also take a day off tomorrow.

I've never done this workout before but thought it might be good preparation for a 5k.  I wasn't that tired after the workout and probably should have tried to average 6:15.  No matter, I'm sure it was beneficial.

7 miles out near Eagle Mountain. I was out camping with boy scouts and woke up early to get a run in. I was on dirt roads and off trail. Normally this area is brown and somewhat unappealing, but this weekend it was green and beautiful. Pronghorn were out and the sunrise was fantastic.
