| | 3 easy miles this morning. 8 muddy miles out on the trails behind the school with the boys. A lot of fun and just what the doctor ordered!

Panther Relays (1 Miles) 00:04:56, Place overall: 1 | | Met up with Dave this morning and did our usual loop. Pretty cold this morning but still quite enjoyable. We had the Panther Relays today which is a fun meet in the middle of the season where the team can get a solid workout in while having fun running nothing but relays. They also have a 1600m race for the middle schoolers and old timers. Dave beat me last year and I wanted to redeem myself. I warmed up and got some strides in and watched Dave run the 800m leg of the medley. I guess Dave wasn't planning on running the 1600m. He planned on running it with Rylee. Dang. The gun went off and I worked my way into 1st place. I felt good while some of the high schoolers went around me. The wind started to pick up and hit the first lap in 1:16. I knew I would have to gut it out to break 5:00 today. I pushed a kid out of the way at the 110m mark because I needed to move. As soon as I thought this, the wind picked up even more. It seemed like I was barely moving and then the wind would die down. I kept working for this one. I hit 1:13, 1:14, and then finished with a 1:13. I ended up lapping a few people which helped but I was slightly disappointed in the time. I knew if the wind died down I could have gone a little bit faster. Oh well! This was still a lot of fun. Nice to have parents and the runners cheer me on. The team had a great time today and overall it was a giant success.

| | Did a loop from my house, through Santa Clara, down Dixie Dr., back up to Snow Canyon Parkway, back towards Santa Clara, and then up to Ivins. A new loop I thought of on the fly but I really enjoyed it. I did the first 11 miles at a brisk pace but just wanted to get the legs warmed up. I then hit a 5 mile tempo. My miles were 5:34, 5:30, 5:28, 5:25, and 5:33. Much better than last week. I kept the pace honest back to the house. 19 total miles with 6:40/mile. Solid run to end the week. Felt much better today than I have in a long time. Hopefully I can keep it rolling.
