Tried the TM intervals today but after the first one pointed out the soreness I knew it just was not going to happen today. I did the second (12.1) anyway, and started the third (12.5) but 2 tenths in I bagged it and ran some decently fast stretchy miles outside, then did the upper body. I guess I can't have two record days in a row :)

But I can do an afternoon  workout, 25 mins on the bike, calling it 3 easy

10x10 hill sprints on the road again, finally! I just don't trust the treadmill, even with an 11.5% grade - I can't get the monster extensions like outdoors.

Excellent threshold run on the slightly downhill course, tied the record (5:48) splits were

5:10 (100 feet downhill), 5:51 (down and up), 5:51 (up and down) 6:11 (slightly up), 6:10 (up and a bit down)

 I am so doing St George this year. And I signed up for Provo City Half. Might as well turn the long runs into races :)

EZ 8 beside the disturbingly large moon. Slow as I could, 7:33 average page. Breathing 1 for 4, felt very good after being sore yesterday.

Tried to do 5x880, but the first one turned into a 440 because I am so rusty on speed at this distance and it took two to get the guts to feel the pain. So, 440 at 75, 880 at 2:30, 440 at 74, 880 at 2:33, 440 at 76, 880 at 2:29. I can just start to feel the right place for these, I hope to get 5x880 at 2:26. I have to if I am to beat the most annoying nephew in the universe on July 4th.

Timp trail test run this morning, easy on the flats on down, crushing the uphills. Knocked 2.5 minutes off the Dry Canyon ascent! That should be enough to win it this year.

Best mileage week ever, or second! Best three week period ever I think!
