Met Daniel and Noah at HHS, warmed up with a lap of Sugar House, and hopped the fence to the track.

Ran 3 x Daniel 484s with 400 rests. This was a new workout for me and one that Daniel does frequently. It goes like this...one fast(er) 400, straight into an 800 at slightly faster than race pace, and finish going straight into another faster(er) 400.

It was a great workout. Tests you on running race pace with a little tired legs from the first 400 and then tests you on picking up the pace again for the last 400. I will definitely be doing more of these. They seemed to go by faster than straight mile repeats because of the changing it up in the middle. I felt consistent and they were not miserable. Will try to push the 400s a little harder next time.

1:22, 3:04, 1:22 = 5:48
1:20, 3:03, 1:21 = 5:44
1:20, 3:03, 1:21 = 5:44

glad i didn't really have any niggles lingering from yesterday's workout. no calf pain...another victory.

there is a long long long thread on fb regarding shoes and their potential lifespan. people can get pretty heated.

7 on the JRP from 33rd southbound.

Jeff and I drove and met Tyler for an easy 7 with a 100 meter all out spontaneous sprint to avoid the skunk I almost stepped on! Closest encounter to date with one of those smelly critters.

23 - 6:57 - 723 ft.

Met Jen and Daniel at Liberty and drove one car up to 11th ave. Ran roughly miles 1-24 of the Salt Lake Marathon course. Solid effort the whole way. Jen is looking strong and is going to do great. I predict she will be crossing that tape and holding it high. Daniel is a beast and I hope he gets his PR. He is going to run hard.

I am going to say that I am officially past the rut I was in a week ago. I felt good during this run. I had a couple ups and downs, but felt strong to the end. We kept a solid effort and I was able to pick it up at the end. Hoping for another several weeks of solid training before the taper to Ogden.
