This morning I went to golds gym to warm up my muscles before I ran outside. I walked in around 5:40 and it was sooo humid! GROSS! Get me out of here! So I just ducked in, plugged my nose, and worked on the elliptical for 40 minutes. Then I lifted weights for about 20 minutes and rock and rolled my buns out of Golds. I came home and got my Garmin and Ran up the river trail. I did speed intervals for the first 25 minutes. 7:37 to a 6:20 pace. The last 30 minutes I just ran and got into my music. The sun was out and the sky was an amazing hue of blue. I saw a beaver just off the trail. At one point, I had to do a little maneuvering and scrambling as there was a tractor parked in the middle of the trail. It has been moving boulders back and forth trying to secure the rivers edge. They expect the banks to overflow this week. So I had to go up a steep hill and around the tractor in my path. Fun times. I love running this time of year outside and most especially I just love running. My parent's should've middle named me run. hehe
Provo city 5k on Saturday! My goal: crack the 20 min time again.
