Mueller Park with Adam and Fritz. Lovely run but I wasn't feeling awesome. Somehow Fritz had about .2 more than me. He is certain his was right so it's 13.

Lunch

Dry creek with Adam. Warm and muggy and I felt quite lethargic. Just beat the 9 minute guy.

I have been considering reevaluating everything for a month now and keep puting it off hoping my attitude would change. I don't think it's an attitude thing anymore. Less mileage and less running stress are the self-imposed orders.

8 with James on the usual avenues loop in the AM.

On my way to work, I saw guy jogging sunnyside up. He was simultaneously bouncing a racquetball from hand to hand. Is there a sane explanation?

AM

Met up with Fritz, Adam and a guy named JP at the East High track and did 2x400, 800, 1600, 800, 400 with rests of 400 after all but the 400 (200 rest). I had no desire to do this workout and considered not going and not continuing after the first 400 but I stuck it out.

Splits were 73, 77, 2:39, 2:38, 5:30, 5:34, 2:41, 2:39, 76, 72.

Felt pretty good by the end though not overly speedy. Plenty left in the tank though.

Lunch

Warm and cool on the stationary bike and a PT/core/stretch routine.

Snyderville Basin Loop with Fritz and Jake. Very nice loop with a lot of dirt. I slowed down a bit over the last 3-4 and wasn't feeling awesome. 6:55 average for the whole thing.
