Am-  Got up at 5:30am to run a 4 mile run easy out to Butterfild Park and back.  I had to use the bathroom fromthe start but held it the whole run, so it wasn't a very comfortable run!  I saw about 40 women running on the way home.  Maybe they had some kind of weird Relief Society run at 6:00am this morning or something?!  7:55 ave

PM-  My first interval workout of the whole year.  It was nice and hot for it too.  I split the Varsity and JV up and left the JV at the track with Garlick.  We warmed up over to Oquirrh and did 10x400 meters on the lawn.  The deal was that if they didn't hit the pace I gave them that interval didn' count.  I wanted the guys to hit 1:14s with a 5 second window (i.e. we could run anywhere from 1:12-1:16 and be fine).  If we were under or over pace it didn't count.  I pushed the first one at1:04 just to throw them off at the start, but they did well.  We onnly had one that was off and so we ended up with 12x400 total and hit our average right on for 9 of them.  It felt good to run fast again and do a workout with my guys.  We got 7.5 miles total.
