I used to run for BYU, but only after trying out three times and finally walking on, so I was never a star. However, it was wonderful to run with great people and under Coach Shane. When you run with fast people, you can't help to improve! I graduated BYU in 1998, and didn't run a race until 2002, after having my second child. My hiatus and other crazy life commitments have made my competitive running suffer, but the last couple of years I have tried to get back into it the best I can. I have been married since 1996, to Paul Lowry, who is a runner himself. I have three boys (my three rascals), ages 12, 10, and 8. After a great 2008 season, I was injured and eventually diagnosed and cross-diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a type of arthritis disease, which precludes running for all but the most stubborn. So I am on medications, trying to stay healthy, and seeing my PT often. And running! Now beating the streets in Hong Kong. |

I woke up at 5:30am because Paul and Ben and Mickie were getting home from Nepal around 6am, and I waited around for them. I finally checked the airport website at 7:20 and their flight was delayed so I left for my run. Did 15.01k at 5:00 ave pace. I felt good, though the heat and humidity are draining. PM core workout |

| I met Ali and two guys. We chatted about the workout. it is 18 x 1.5k with 1.5 min rest between. the hr targets were 70-74% for first 6, 74-78 for second 6 and 78-82 for last six. This is Ali's workout for the marathon and I was along to help. She was not wearing hr band, but had paces she thought were right. I talked to her about them and I think I slowed down her targets, so that the first 6 were supposed to be no faster than 4:45, the second six abt 4:30, the third 6 4:10-4:20. From the first 6, I knew that these paces were not right for me to hit the desired hr zones, but the workout was more for Ali, and I think she is in better shape. Paces/ ave hr were 4:54 (132), 4:56 (147), 4:54 (141), 4:56 (141), 4:47 (141), 4:55 (135), 4:36 (148), 4:23 (154), 4:33 (154), 4:34 (152), 4:33 (153), 4:34 (155), 4:19 (160), 4:17 (163), 4:10 (164), 4:16 (164), 4:09 (164), 4:10 (168). I was toast by the last one, hr was creeping above 90% by the end of these fast reps, and not dropping enough with the 90 sec rest, as can be shown by the 168 ave on the last one. I stuck with Ali, except the last one I fell a bit behind, perhaps 3 seconds. She was much less labored in the last 6 set than me. I am not sure that she was below 82% but she wasn't where I was, that much was plain.
