went on an easy/hard interval run today about 7.5 miles.  about 4 miles of that was 6 min pace or better.  the rest was easy.  then played some intense ultimate frisbee and we were good so we did a lot of running down the field for another 1.5 fast miles in short sprints.  Then went on a slow jog for 3 miles with my roomate and another friend.  So all in all today was a great day for running although I will probably be fairly sore tomorrow.  But I'm feeling more in shape and faster so I think I am improving and hopefully will  be in great shape for my first marathon in less than a month.

7.5 easy today.  legs were quite sore from yesterdays intensity but it felt really good.  I am finally feeling fast again and the altitude has stopped bugging me.  Ahhh...I hope this lasts.  I am feeling some freakishly fast 5ks and 10ks after the marathon.  but I'm excited for the marathon too...since that seems to be the coming of age for runners.  BRING IT ON!  haha.

7 easy today again.  legs still a little sore so I took today kind of as a rest day.  Felt good though.  Went and found this canyon to run up.  Didn't go too far up it because of time constraints but it looks promising.  Anyway, good day today.

wasn't going to push too hard today but I was feeling really good so I did a loop around First Dam and the Temple as fast as I could possibly do it.  almost 10k in 37 min (6:04/mi)...which is pretty darn good considering there are some huge hills and I wasn't in a race.  I was thinking it would make a pretty cool 10k course if you added another .1 on somewhere.  Anyway, felt really good and strong.  Really feeling a lot faster and hopefully I'll be able to put that into a good pace on the marathon and my endurance training will allow me to maintain it.  That's the plan.
