Catch me if you can

Taylor said she would run with me if I split it up and ran twice today.  So this morning we ran up to the high school and she wanted to run the loop the xc team does on the grass.  Then we ran the rest of the big loop back home.  It was a nice easy paced run.  We are planning on 4 more tonight.  My left knee has giving me some trouble again.  avg page 9:20.

I met the group at the SJ soccer fields this morning.  I ran 4 warm up miles.  Then we did 4 x 1 mile repeats with a 1/2 mile recovery after each one.  Those times were 7:04, 7:11, 7:00, and 7:10.  Then I cooled down until I hit 11 miles.  Taylor ran with the BBKs for the first time.  I think she liked it but she hated getting up so early.     

6 miles with Taylor.  I let her decide where to run.  Average pace 9:19.

I met the group at the church on 2200 W. and 9800 S.  First we ran an easy 3 mile warm up.  For the main workout, I ran up to 40th W, around the little park, and then back to the church.  Then I cooled down a mile with Taylor.  They are working on 9800 and the road is all rocky and very hard to run on.  I ended up running most of the run on the sidewalk which was very painful on my knees.  Average pace 8:26.

I met the group at Daybreak and Kelli and Scott shuttled us to the start of the SV half marathon course that I'm running next week.  I'm glad I was able to run this course, because it has a lot more uphill than I thought it would.  Anyway, it was a good run.  When we got back to Daybreak, we ran the 3 mile loop around the lake.  Average pace 8:21.
