Brookings, Oregon. Went for a run with Jason, down to the beach and along the harbor. We hit some hills, both up and down, and my legs didn't like it one bit. Hopefully I can loosen up some and get some good workouts in this week. It's always fun to run with Jason--he's going to do well in Boston.
Pace: 6:45

It rained all night long, as well as this morning, so everything was wet and there was a dense fog all over town. I ran 3 easy miles at 7:00/mile pace to Brookings-Harbour High School so I could run some repeats. The workout was 6x800m with a 200m jog between each and I was shooting for times somewhere between 2:20 - 2:22 pace. I wasn't close:
- 2:29
- 2:26
- 2:23
- 2:23
- 2:23
- 2:20
I should have done better, especially with the low elevation. I've been super-slack on getting to the track and doing some speed during the past few months. Hopefully with the few weeks I have remaining before Lincoln I can be more consistent and get my legs moving. I ran back to the beach house for an additional 3 miles.

Final run in Brookings, Oregon. I won't miss running here--the rain was pouring down and I was soaked in seconds. We were going to run 7:00/mile pace, but the rain wasn't fun so we picked it up some and ran 6:36/mile pace. Rotterdam (129) | Add Comment |

So last week I ran my first "double" in years, and this week I've ran 4 days in a row. What gives? Today is my last day in Medford, Oregon before heading back to Utah. I did a 2.5 mile warm up, then set out for a 10 mile tempo. I don't have my splits in front of me, but I was shooting for anything under 6:00. After I finished, I jogged for .5 mile to cool down. I could tell I was running at lower elevation.
Total Time: 55:58
Pace: 5:35

Very happy with todays run, although I wasn't loving life when I first got out of bed. It was 3am when I climbed in bed after getting back from Oregon Thursday night (Friday morning) and my body was craving more sleep this morning. I forced myself out and got a few miles in before work. I ate half a banana 10 minutes before running 1 mile for a warm up and it was all I could do to hit 7:15, so I began to think that today was going to be rough. I stretched some and then began my workout. I ran north through Enoch for 3 miles, then back to the house for Gatorade @ 6, an extended loop around the college and back to the house for Gu and water @ 9, then Wal-Mart frontage road and back to finish off with 15 miles. My stomach handled the water and Gu just fine--just 4 more long runs to get used to drinking liquids and taking gel. My pace was very consistent today: Other than my 2 water stops, 12 of my miles were all within 4 seconds of each other (6:10-6:14 pace) and I had 6 miles with back-to-back exact times (3 straight 6:10's during 2, 3, & 4 and then 3 straight 6:07's during 11, 12, & 13). Last mile in 5:55 because the bathroom was calling my name!
Total Time: 1:33:00 Pace: 6:12 Red (231) Turns out this is my highest mileage week since college. Every time I've gone over 40 miles/week, I've gotten injured soon thereafter, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Bike 3 miles
