| 6:24, 6:27, 6,31, 1:10 I wasn't planning on running this race which was at Wheeler Farm but I cancelled a weekend trip and was able to join the team. It's been a while since I've done a 5k workout and I got a cold a couple of days before so I wasn't in top condition. Before the race, all 200 of us were directed to the starting area but there wasn't a clear starting line. Just before the race started they told us to move behind an imaginary starting line and there wasn't enough time for me to move up front. At least the first quarter of a mile was spent trying to get around people on a narrow trail. Then things spread out enough to run at my planned pace. The congestion in my lungs really started affecting me during the last mile. The scoring for the team is based on finishing place so near the end I passed the guy I had been running behind. But I passed him too early and didn't kick hard enough. Then right as I got to the finish line, he made the smart move and passed me. Our team got third place, L3 second and Goldman Sachs first. |

| 3 x 1600m (2:15) 6:30, 6:32, 6:32 I had planned on doing four reps but after three I realized that I still have a bit of congestion and that the last rep would be much slower. So I cut bait. | |

| 13 miles I couldn't run in the morning and had to postpone this run until the wee hours. It's been a long time since I've run in the dark and I underestimated how dark it would be on the Porter Rockwell trail. I should have brought a headlamp. On the way back I stayed on road more to keep from tripping. My heels did not feel good after this run so iced for 30 minutes after. My right hamstring was also hurting. I probably shouldn't have run that far. Ten miles might have been better for me. | |

| 4 mi progression 7:12, 7:04, 7:01, 6:49 I didn't got too fast on this workout because I didn't want to have to cut it short like I did last week. As a result, it felt really good. I was hardly tired afterwards. Hopefully I can improve on my half marathon pace this training cycle and bring it closer to 6:45. | |

| 7 miles 7:26 min/mi Instead of a long run today I tried to hold a pace between easy and half marathon pace. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. My heart rate got up to 189 at the end. |

| 3 mile tempo 6:47, 6:41, 6:40 I did this workout at lunch today but it was too hot. I was extremely drained afterwards. But I'm happy with my effort. |

| 5-mile tempo 7:10, 7:06, 7:03, 7:01, 6:43 I was worried about this workout and postponed it until late in the evening. However, it wasn't that bad and considering how the last mile went, I think I could have run a bit faster during the first four miles. |

| 16 miles I really out to Corner Canyon then up to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and back via Wasatch Blvd. I averaged 9:00 min/mi mainly because of slow going on the trail. And I'm beat after this run. The suspension bridge is finished on the BST over Bear Canyon. It really bounces when you run across. |
