AM - 4.4 miles easy. Did not get ANY sleep last night... Jesse James was feeling sick and needed to go outside every five minutes to either poop or throw up. I'm glad I don't have kids... does it make me a jerk to say that? PM - 6.1 miles. Andrea and I did the same workout that we did the Tuesday before Utah Valley: 2 x 1 mile on Wasatch Drive (-1% gradient). In June I ran 4:57, 4:54 (temperature in the high 60s). Today I ran 4:39, 4:31 (temperature in the mid 90s). All things considered, a good little workout, and I feel confident that I will run a strong race at TOU this Saturday. I feel like I've made the progress that I wanted to this summer... but we'll find out in a few days. I've never run one of these famous Utah downhill 1/2s (unless you count the 2nd half of UVM, in which case my aided PR is 1:10:37). I'm also excited because my family will be there to watch. I had absolutely no discipline on my diet today, which I'll chalk up to being up all night, and incessantly snacking to stay awake at work. Not a good thing to do, but at least its only Tuesday and I have a few days to get myself back on track and feel sharp before the weekend.
