30 minutes easy on the treadmill. Was hoping for more, but that was all I could squeeze in before the kids woke up.

9 easy on the parkway

Took a good 3 miles to start to feel like I wanted to be out there.

8.25 easy around the neighborhood and then out on the parkway.

Track workout tomorrow and long run with tempo on Saturday. Hoping the tempo feels alright. It has been a while since I have run any miles strung together at my marathon pace.

-i am no longer quantifiable-

11 - 6:46avg

Met Fritz, Dan, Noah, and Evan at HHS and warmed up with a lap of Sugar House. We did a long ladder workout. 2x400, 2x800, 2x1600, 2x800, 2x400.

I wanted to ease into it and keep everything comfortably fast. I feel really good about how it turned out.

10 along the parkway. It was a clear still morning. Temp was decent, though my fingers got cold on the way back. I likely need to invest in some new gloves.

Right calf / soleus is a little tight from yesterday's workout. Good news is my left side in genreal is feeling a lot better. I have had off and on pain from my foot to my hip ever since the rib + St. George debacle.

6 easy on the parkway

A couple years ago I had this idea for a clock made of my old running shoes. I am sure it has been done before, but I thought it could be cool. At the time, I didn't have enough to complete the clock. Thousands of miles later, I finally hung it last night. It is just shy of 4 feet wide, hanging in our loft area.

21 - 7:07 - 626 ft. 

Tempo - 7 - 6:29

Met John, Jen, and Devra at Liberty and ran miles 9-24 of the Salt Lake Marathon course. We warmed up 5.5, ran 7 miles at tempo, and finished with 2 laps of Liberty to hit 21. 

I was looking forward to this run. I was planning on using it as a test of where my fitness is at right now. I had a goal of keeping the tempo at about a 6:35-40 average. It ended up being a little faster because of a couple miles with some down. I was pleased to hold that pace on the few climbs though. This gave me a good idea of what to do moving toward Ogden. Pushed the final half mile at Liberty back down to 6:30 for fun.
