Let's do this!

ran 5.5 on the river trail this morning. leg feels good to go. I will still be careful for a couple weeks. i feel so happy to be running again. Love summer running.

Ran 5.5

strength trained. 32 min elliptical and ran 5 miles

No gym. Thank heavens. Woke up, dressed and stepped right out my door. River trail for 5.75 miles. Runners and sprinklers don't mix. I got hosed TWICE. Once by my own sprinklers in the face! Once by the giant sprinklers that water the sports park next to the river trail. 

Pace was nice and slow. Makes me worried that I will lose all speed.

They are bulldozing the end of the river trail to expand and hook up to the other part of the trail that begins at the mouth of Spanish fork canyon. It should make the full trail about 7-8 miles from beginning to end. I will take a picture today and post it tomorrow. 

Walked a 1/2 mile back to my house as a cool down. I am so glad to be back running. Even if it is slow everyday. 

ran 5 @5 am. to the gym. lifted weights. Husband met me there and we worked out together. Good times.

Oh, I run slow

4 miles to the gym, 25 min elliptical. Then did some speed intervals 1 min on off on the dreadmill for 2 miles. Hubby came and worked out again with me. He's on a morning roll! He usually works out on his lunch. 

6.5 miles. I left at 6:20 and immediately from the get go I FELT SO GOOD. I felt back to normal! Something clicked today. I was fearing the last week that I would never find speed again. I think I am wrong.

3.5 miles at a 7:40 pace. Then 2.5 miles of 400m speed interval on/offs. I hit 1:33ish each and as I progressed the splits came down and down each time. My speed is still there! I just need to keep at this once a week, find my endurance and I am good to go!!
