Met a large group of masochists at the Lehi High track this morning at 5am.
Scott, Matt, Reed, Karl, Zack and Toni joined in for the fun.

3 mile warm up. 1 lap of strides.

7x800m, 1x400m

Splits: (2:29, 2:28, 2:28, 2:27, 2:21, 2:26, 2:20, 1:03)

We took turns leading. It was great to have a big group, it's amazing how much that helps in a workout.  

Mile cool down on the squishy turf.

Matt, Scott, and I ran 10 easy on the Murdock canal. Great summer morning running.

Another few to go get my car at the mechanic.

Ugh.

Everything about this day, excepting the race part, were great. Matt and I drove to Springville at 4:20 am. Hopped the bus. Ran into Dave, Bill and Justin at the start. 1.5m warm up.

I was feeling a little tight and my stomach was slightly unsettled but I still thought I could run well. The first 5 went well enough. Rolling hills, mostly down. Averaged 5:20s. I could tell after the 2nd mile that it was not going to end well.

The wheels started to come off around 7. Legs were dead, stomach was raging. I took a 50 sec potty break at 8. Couldn't get back on pace. Mentally threw in the towel and cruised in at 6:00-ish. By the time I saw Spencer I was really hoping he had my roller skates ready but he didn't come through for me.

I'm not sure what happened. My legs feel like I ran a marathon.
