4 miles with the team doing the warm up and cool down. I hopped in and did a little bit of the workout with the team.

I ran another 4 miles after practice with Dace. Nice and relaxed. Talked about how great track is going this year.

My allergies have been killing me this week. I didn't get much sleep and was up at 4:30am. Dave and Clyde were not able to meet so I woke up and went for a 15 miles run along Snow Canyon Parkway into town. It was actually quite nice with the moon out and how great the temperature is.

Since this morning wasn't enough, I decided to do a bigger workout with the team. I did the warm up with them and did 15x400m with 1 minute recovery. I hit them between 1:12 - 1:17. Felt pretty good with this. I did the cool down with the team and then I felt very hungry. Happy with a solid day's worth of running. I needed this kind of day in a big way.

5 miles this morning. Did a touch over 3 miles with the team exploring new neighborhoods around the high school. 

Got up to Orem with the team and we ran from the hotel over to Provo High and then back to Pizza Pie Cafe for dinner. Ended up being 5.25 miles. Beautiful weather up here. 

It was fun watching Darian run in the collegiate meet today.

Woke up and did 12 miles around Orem this morning. I threw in 6x1/2 mile repeats at 5:00 - 5:10 pace. Felt good with these. Made my way up towards the canyon and came back. Beautiful morning. 

Watched the 1600m races and then went out for some more with the team. I knew I was going to get restless so I brought the running gear and ran with the kids. We went out towards Utah Lake and just enjoyed the weather. We ended up running on private property and getting kicked off. Oops! We had to go a different way so that made the run a touch longer. We ended up running 7.5 miles. 

Happy to end the week on a very positive note. I need to try and get some longer tempo runs in next week. That is the next step in the whole process.
