Cassia Park - 43:45

Took an easy but steady recovery run today. Legs actually felt pretty good for doing 17 miles yesterday. Sunny and windy. I did the last mile with Leo around the neighborhoods. Will shoot for some hills tomorrow.

Run to gym + treadmill - 49:55

Steady down to the gym, then did a little treadmill workout. Did 3.5 miles at a 3% grade and 2 x half mile at 3:00 with a little jogging between. My sleep pattern has really been crappy lately, but my legs felt pretty good today.

Weights, core and stretching - 20 minutes

1.5 mile wo, 8 x 2 min pickups, 1 mile wd

In a bit of a running lull right now. Ran at 9:15 p.m. but made it work, I guess. Warmed up with Leo, then did 8 x 2 on/2off. The on segments were at 5:43/mile pace and the off segments were at 7:20 pace. This was a lot tougher than it should have been. My form just feels a bit off right now. I will plan to start adding some short doubles and get my mileage up a bit this week.

Cassia Park+ - 1:00

Took the canals to Cassia Park and did a few laps there. On the way back home, I did 8 x Borah hills with a jog back down. Steady pace the whole way (just under 7:00/mile). Felt ok

A.M. Neighborhoods - 20:01

An early morning shuffle around the neighborhoods at 6:15 a.m. First mile was a waste but got moving a little better after that

P.M. 1.5 mile wo, 4 mile fartlek, 1.5 mile wd

Felt horrible this evening. Was planning a 5 mile tempo run but ran out of time and also just couldn't get me legs moving. Ended up doing a fartlek workout at BK track with 5-4-3-2-1-1-1 minutes with about a minute jog between. Covered 4 miles in about 24 minutes.

Just not feeling it lately. Hopefully tomorrow's long run will go ok.

Rocky Canyon Rd + Military Reserve - 2:27

Long, long run today. The last few miles dragged on, although I was keeping a relatively good pace. Went 5.25 miles up Rocky Canyon (gained over 1000') and back down. Then finished with 9.5 miles on the trails in the reserve. This part was tough. It was windy out today but sunny. Most of the miles off paved roads. Good finish to a rough week.

 

58 miles for the week.
