Nice easy three miles with Paula and some rain. It was chilly this morning. Came back and did some core training using the workout in the new Runner's World - not to bad.
I have two this month - Heart of Holladay 5K this Saturday and then the Westfest 5K on the 28th. I am getting tired of the 5k's but there are always plenty and it is good speed work.
Good job Jody! When I met you at the 10K earlier in the year you had reddish hair and I wouldn't have known it was you from your picture. What color will it be Saturday? Mine actually has more red in it than last time you seen me. Looking forward to one of us getting into SGM on Saturday!
No, I have not ran H of H before. I am kind of excited to be there though. When Tom and I were young and had only 2 kids and lived in apartments we lived in that area. So it will fun to run there.
I hope you have a great race. It's too bad to see your March, April and May races crossed off for circumstances beyond your control. Time for a new 5K PR!
I've been using the core workouts from the July issue of Runner's World. I like them a lot. I think it will make me a better runner in the long run anyways.
I went and drove the route during my lunch. The first mile is mostly flat with teeny little rolling inclines. Once you turn off of Holladay Blvd. it is down hill and the flat and then you have a good up hill section (maybe .25 to much I think for a 5k) but I want fast. The last is flat and rolling - just like the first.
It's kind of nice to know the layout of the race. Even if you had to use precious gas to run through it. So we've got about a quarter of a mile that will want to rule us, but guess what Jody....it won't! Right!? =)
I am not sure at this point. My training has suffered quite a bit. I am going to plan and train as if I was but make a decision as I get closer. If not, I am planning on running Top of Utah. Are you running either?
Brent - Purple?! Why not toxic green?! Or better yet that Flourescent Orange that pierces the retina! :)
Jody - Good luck @ the 5k this weekend :) Slice 'em and dice 'em! Take no prisoners and don't stop passing people until the tape! You can do it!
