I hate daylight savings time.I got to the gym to do my intervals, and everything seemed harder than normal. I was going to push anyway, and did pretty well - 11.7, 12.1, 12.4/5, and 12.8 but at .8 miles on the last I had to drop it to 10.2 for .1 miles, then I brought it back to 14.0. Then I realized I had taken my trail shoes, which is why it was noticeably harder. I hope.

Practicing downhill miles for the Leopards race. I found two that dropped about 100 feet each, and I got 5:19 and 5:10. Looks like I will be around 16:10 on the 5K unless I can find a way to stretch my stride a bit. Breathing was pretty easy though, maybe I can push it under 5 in the race.

Amusing little tempo run before Pi day festivities with the running club, got a 5:57 average in the flats of Orem. Looking good!

I was going to run up Squaw Peak Road with Bill but he decided to do it at crazytime so I ran the McDonalds triangle (just try not to grab hash browns as you pass)

 The middle is 5  miles of glorious ups and downs on the Bonneville shoreline trail, good in this case for about 1200 feet of vertical, NONE of which I walked. Ha! I am ready for the Timp Trail half now, and Mr Varga will be hard pressed to beat me this year :)

Too bad it's still 2 months away and I am actually trying to get ready for a downhill 5k next Saturday. Oops.
