I'm not really sure how the miles work out, but it's close.  I warmed up for a mile, then did 2 min @ 6:40 followed by 2 min @ 8:30, repeated enough times to get 8.4 miles.  I liked this workout.  It didn't kill me, but gave me some time at faster speeds.  Overall time was 64 minutes.  I still need to buy some new shoes, and if this keeps up, a gym membership or replacement treadmill.  Squeak, rattle, bang.  Anybody interested in a long run on Saturday in Davis County?  I don't want to drive to SLC and make a time consuming commitment take even longer...

Nice workout Kam! I agree that shorter intervals of faster speeds are much more enjoyable than long intervals at fast speeds. :)

great workout. you've really been hard at it lately. nice work -

i would give you my treadmill (i haven't used in lately) but it suffers the same audio challenges as yours.

Thanks Rachelle and JD. Rachelle, you should try to get together with melodyj. She's hitting it pretty hard in preparation for Boston, too.

Kam, what's your goal time at Boston this year?

From Kam on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 13:58:47 from 68.66.163.179

Russ, it's 2:55. I'm going all in, at least until something starts to hurt.

From Russ on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 14:03:57 from 74.114.3.253

Nice!

From Andy on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 15:08:19 from 159.212.71.200

I'm up for a few miles on Saturday. Let me know when and where. I'm pretty sure your pace has surpassed mine so I will do my best to keep up.

From Kam on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 15:59:16 from 68.66.163.179

Cool, Andy. Tara wants to come too. We'll get a time sorted out.

From Andrea on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 16:05:28 from 72.37.171.52

We might schedule in a Davis County long run in the next couple weeks.

From Kam on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 16:10:26 from 68.66.163.179

Andrea, that'd be great. Legacy Parkway trail is very inoffensive, also Main Street through Centerville and Farmington.

From allie on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 21:50:55 from 63.248.245.124

nice work today, kam. sorry about the bum TM.

maybe we could all skype during our runs on saturday...

From Kam on Thu, Jan 12, 2012 at 02:01:09 from 174.23.247.157

Skype. That'd be great. It sounds like we've got a nice one cooking around 7 a.m. You should come log some nice friendly miles.

Russ, that 2:55 is a pipe dream, but it makes sub three seem manageable. 6:50 pace for 26 miles? What am I thinking?

From DaleG on Thu, Jan 12, 2012 at 02:31:46 from 152.216.3.5

If I could keep up with all you speedsters, I'd probably join in on Saturday or Sunday long runs, but I would end up running by myself anyway, and I wouldn't expect anyone to run as slow as I do, so probably not, but thanks for the offer. LOL :)

Too bad about the treadmill. I finally used mine today for the first time since I fixed it back in November. Works and sounds great.

I think allie may be onto something with the skype idea :)

From rAtTLeTrAp on Thu, Jan 12, 2012 at 02:50:53 from 67.160.56.253

or just on something
