1.5 mile warmup; 4 x 3:00, 1 x 2:00; 1 mile warmdown

Did a quick workout at the BK track. Really nice and warm weather with light breezes. Averaged about 5:47/mile for the entire workout and took about 2:30 recovery jogs. Didn't feel great, but I put in a decent effort.

Cottonwood Creek - 48:39

Stopped on the drive to Twin Springs to do this run. Ran a little over 2 miles up a forest service road, then about a mile on the singletrack. On the way back down, I did about a 20 minute tempo run (6:03 for the last mile) which was a blast. Great run.

2.5 mile warmup; 4 x 5:00 tempo intervals; 2.5 mile warmdown

Ran to Cassia and back, and did the intervals on the path. Chilly morning, but perfect for long sleeves and shorts. Not sure the exact pace on the tempo segments but kept them comfortably hard (6:10-6:20 pace maybe - hard to tell on the twisty path). Recoveries were about 1:20.

Another decent (but not great) workout. Finishing them and staying consistent is the most important thing for me right now.

Rock Creek Park - 32:57

Typical spring run in Twin Falls (I.e. the weather was crappy). Pretty steady rain the whole way but still a pretty good run. Sick most of the day, so it's surprising I felt decent
