Running!

I did three easy miles in the morning and a speed workout in the evening.  One 800 at 3:34 and two 400s at about 1:47.  I was pretty sore, so I didn't push too hard, but I felt good about the workout anyway.

I felt like I had very little energy today, and I am a little sore.  I think I will ice and eat more.

We did 4 easy miles and about .5 miles of strides and hills.  I was kind of sore but feeling better than last week.

I went on a hike, it was about 8 miles and pretty steep.  Since I wasn't running it I halved the distance.  It felt really good, one thing I've noticed about hiking is that you use a lot of muscles in your quads, especially on steep downhills so you can balance. 

4.25 miles of running at a fairly high altitude and 4 miles of hiking.  I didn't get to run too much at camp, but I at least got some in.

I ran from my house to the cemetery and back, and I didn't get lost!  It was pretty good, I did about 10 minute miles but slowed down on the last mile.  I saw Tolbert while I was out running, and that was kind of weird. That was 6.5 miles.

I ran in the evening with USATF but didn't do a lot because I wasn't feeling very good.  Anyone have hints on preventing sideaches?  I don't get them a lot, but today was bad. 

It was a nice easy workot today.  I taught the freshmen how to do firemen, it was really fun.  I love freshmen!

I felt really good today.  We did 2 miles of speed changes, I actually beat Susannah and Bre (yeah, for once in my life, I know, but it still made me happy). 

2 easy miles in the evening.

I actually swam 1000 meters, but I don't know how much to count it as!

Hiking 9 miles.  I can tell you, my shoulders were not ready for that 25 pound pack.

Hiked to the top of Kings and back to camp, about 14 miles.  I came down the scree pile, for anyone doing Kings that is NOT the way to go.  Just for a heads up.

I hiked back out and came home.  It was really nice, but that pack didn't feel too much lighter than it did going in.

It was really nice and slow- I ran with my 14 year old dog.

We ran on the Dry Creek trail.  It's an easier run than bike, and really beautiful.

We did some hills today.  I was sore but felt o.k. about the workout. 

We ran on the Jordan River Trail. It was a beautiful run, but my quads were pretty sore.
