Running!

We did so much core stuff!  It was very hard for all of us little runners.  It made me feel weak.  I hope we never do it again.

4 miles in the evening

Up Pipeline trail.  Bill ran behind me the entire last half of the trail, which made me push.  It was probably good for me.

3.5 miles in the evening, which, in spite of their slowness, kicked my butt.

Speed!  Aughhhh

1 mile- 7:05  800- 3:34 4 400s- 1:36, 1:40, 1:41, 1:37.  I've got a lot to work on this season, but I'm hoping that the slowness is at least partially attributed to my heavy mileage the past few days and last week.

Felt pretty good!

2 fast miles at 7:00 and 7:20- the last one slowed down more than I would have liked, probably because I was chasing people the first time.

I didn't do the whole thing because I had work, but I did most of it and then added on about a half mile on the end because I got to Sugarhouse a bit earlier than expected.

 5 in the evening

7 in the morning, fartlek on Pipeline.

My Achilles was achilling me. Heehee.  but seriously, it hurt.  I also saw a huge spider.

6 in the evening

On Puke/ Heartbreak Hill.  It didn't go so well, my new shoes are really pinching a spot on my ankle and I don't know what to do about that.

4 800s w/800 recovery in between at 3:32, 3:30, ?, 3:34.  Odd because usually my first and last are the fastest.

It took me about 4 miles to start feeling good, but after that it was a nice run. 

4 400s on the sleigh ride hill.  I did them at 1:48, 1:52, 1:54, 1:58, 1:48.  I was kind of dogging, but it was still all right.

I fixed my shoe problem! (I think...trail running tomorrow will be the ultimate test).  It was digging into my left ankle and I did up the laces through the very back holes and it didn't hurt as much.  I really hope that this is the right solution.

4 mile run in the evening

I got lost, but I am of the firm belief that I either did 13 miles or gave an equivalent effort, because that was basically the worst run ever.

Best 800s so far this season!  3:26, 3:28, 3:20, 3:19. 

8 miles in the morning

4 in the evening.  I shouldn't have had that donut in the morning.

Speed- I had a good day.

1 mile at 6:57, then 2 800s at 3:16 and 3:09.  My last mile was 6:53 and I got a negative split!  I never get those, so it was a big deal.

10 400s all between 1:47 and 1:51.  I stayed pretty consistent.

5 mile run in the evening 

It's dang hot.  and I mean dang hot.

4 in the morning

afternoon- GAH! 1 mile at 7:05, 7:18 then 800 at 3:26

XC time trial- I got a 19:08 on about a 2.5 mile course.

4 in the morning, 4 in the afternoon (2 miles of speed changes)
