Progression Daily

Tonaquint Cemetery route up towards the N Bluff and made a loop out of it. Got really cold in the shady spots. 10.11 miles 

Sunday night jog. 1.14 miles 

AM-Sullivan with the team. Ended up running with AJ and Wes. My ankle was hurting and swollen so I adjusted my shoe lacing. Did 5 pick ups. 5.01 miles 

PM- 2 mile jog with Marieta then 2 more by myself. 4.10 miles 

AM- Slept terribly so I decided to sleep in instead of going to practice. Unfortunately I still couldn't fall asleep for very long. Did my own run out by the New Aspiration Point. 6.03 miles 

PM- Afternoon run around the neighborhood. 3.61 miles 

AM- Chilly run with the girls around Shinob Kibe with 5 30 second intervals (@ 1600 pace). Good conversations. 5.15 miles 

PM- 2 with Marieta then the Bloomington loop on my own. 5.16 miles 

Running around with the boys and then the girls. Watched the team run the 800. Team looked good. Fun to see Trey run some of these races for the first time. 7.1 miles 

2 miles with Marieta in Tonaquint Cemetery. Added by myself by running to Confluence and through Bloomington Hills. Almost made it back to home. Had Marieta pick me up on Sugar Leo. 10.01 miles 

AM- Leg 9 (Dam Road) trying to keep up with the boys. Took forever to warm up. Highlight of the run for me was watching Holt yell at his dog. 6.50 miles 

AM2/PM1- Chasing deer out by Hop Valley with Ross. It was fun but not ideal for classic running. Saw a ton of deer but no elk. 3.07 miles 

PM2- Santa Clara trails with Marieta. Had good relationship conversations. 3.81 miles 

Sunday stroll. 1.07 miles 

Run with the girls. Fun watching kids run the 1600. Arms felt really heavy on the cool down. Then 2 miles with Marieta. 7.19 miles 

AM- Getting into that Aaron Metler training plan with a cold morning run. 8.07 miles 

PM- Desert above Middleton. Got 3.3 miles before jumping in with the boys. Flipped with AJ, Wes, and Jamin. 7.06 miles 

AM- More running in the cold. I wanted to run more. Just get tired of the cold. 5.33 miles 

PM- Track workout. I was supposed to do 5 1000s. I did what the team was doing instead. Warm and strides. Then 6 600s. I pulled out of the 6th interval because I got light headed (because I'm a wuss). I'm pretty sure each 600 was around 2:22-2:27 range. Then after cooling down I figured I should hit one 1000. Ran a 4:03. So all in all still covered some ground on the track running decently fast. 8.23 miles 

AM- Over towards Bloomington Hills then looped back home through Tonaquint. Feeling better the more I run. Hope that continues as I get more weeks into this. 8.35 miles 

PM- Dinking around by the Middle School with the boys. Striders after. 5.03 miles 

AM- Really slow morning run. Still adjusting to the cold mornings and long miles. 8.55 miles 

PM- Run with Marieta around Tonaquint and a quick visit to baby. 2.62 miles 

PM- Trespassing in duck hunting territory with Ross. He wanted to sneak into Antelope Island. Instead we got muddy and saw a bunch of ducks and swans. The last 2.77 I ran faster, mainly because it was not muddy and slippery. 9.77 miles 

PM2- I needed to run more miles so I had my dad drop me off a couple of miles from my sister's house in Stansbury. I felt stiff from the run and only a 30 minute break. Ran a 7:55 and 7:29 for my last 2 miles. Which for me, at this time, felt fast. 4.52 miles 

PM- A couple of weeks back George and I ran parts of the road to the Bloomington Cave. We drove out to where we turned around last time. This time we picked up the trail and ran the trail all the way back to Navajo Drive. It was a perfect route. I think I wore George out. 11.01 miles 

PM2- Add 3 more miles around Bloomington. 3.13 miles 

AM- Over to Tonaquint and almost to the Dixie Center then flipped it back. 7.55 miles 

PM- Kids did some track work, some did 800s and others 600s. I ran the last 400 with the  top girls, then 400 with Amelia and Laney, then 400 with Alianna, then 400 with the top girls again. 200 with Bentley. 6.71 miles 

PM2- A little jog with M. Felt tired. 1.05 miles 

AM- I wanted to do 3x1 mile repeats. I got 2 in before I had to find a bathroom. I'm really slow right now. I thought my effort was closer to low 6 minute miles. I'll blame the cold. 6.02 miles

AM- Better morning run. 7 miles 

PM- Was a little too selfish this afternoon. The morning cold scares me away from speed workouts in the morning. So I decided to do my workout while the kids did theirs. Supposed to be a pyramid of 400, 800, 1000, 1600, 1000, 800, 400. I put in some decent efforts but wussed out on the 1600 (became my 2nd 1000). It's all good though, still early in my speed play. 8.19 miles 

400- 1:24 

800- 3:03

1000- 4:03

1000- 4:12 (started out as a 1600)

AM- Forgot to swap the laundry so I didn't have any dry clothes for the morning. So I decided to sleep in. I will do my best to get the mileage in this afternoon. 
 

PM- City Creek multiple times. Some chaffing in the cold unfortunately stopped by path to getting 15 miles today. Oh well on to the next day. 11.15 miles 

PM- Long slug fest but actually ran faster than my normal morning run. 11.04 miles 

PM2- Ran a couple of more while waiting for Marieta then 2 with her. 4.01 miles 

AM- Goal of 17 for the day. Basically the same course as last week. Started to get a blister on my right foot. I need to work on pushing harder and not just being a product of favorable miles (which is my go to thing). 12.53 miles
