GOING THE DISTANCE

am -  Dang cold, shoulda worn more than a long sleeve.  2.7 miles

pm -  Forgot my watch so I don't know exact miles.  But I think we went about 45 minutes so 6 is a solid guess.  I'm excited for Thanksgiving break so I can go hit up the trails. 

I'm a huge fan of The Killers so I finally got around to listening to Brandon Flowers album The Desired Effect.  I recommend it if you're into that stuff, it's pretty rad.

Am -  Layered good, wasn't cold.  Hurray for last morning run of the year.  2.7 miles.

Pm -  Throat is getting sore and I'm gettin a coff, musta caught whatever Paul's spreading around.  Heading out to practice I was just feeling slow and tired, but we had 3*1600m repeats so I snapped myself out of it.  Did warm up then did the reps at 10-20 secs slower than race pace, on pace, the 10-20 faster.

1 - 5:25 solid rep me and Dallen worked together

2 - 5:12 a bit slow but it was good me and Dallen worked together against some wind.

3 - 4:53 it really wasn't too hard even with an incedent starting the last lap.

Cool down to 7 miles, solid workout.

Am -  Me and Alex ran up to Mustang Pass and did some work on the trail.  It looked like someone had been up there and done some stuff so that's legit.  There was even some mountain bike tracks.  Run kinda sucked it was windy and my throat is killing me.  At least I'm healthy enough to run and have fun, there's plenty to be grateful for. 

Am -  Went and ran Dino Cliffs trail with Alex and my dad.  And Sally our dog.  It was prime time, such a majestic morning in Saint George.  The last mile of the loop I did some strides.  5 miles.

Am -  Got up and had a beast breakfast my mom made, then at 10 me and Alex ran up to Green Springs Park to do our workout; 3*(1000m, 400m).  We did a cool little loop around the park that ended up just longer than 1k so it was pretty rad.  

The 1k repeats were at 5k pace so I went 3:15, 3:08, 3:11.  They were a bit slower than I wanted, but with being sick and the loop had hills and sharp turns, they were good.  Last one was pretty tough.

The 400s were hard like 1:05s but I mean they were only 400m so not really too bad.  Cooled down back to home for 7.2 miles.  It was cold like 40° and wow I'm sick of being sick.

Am -  Me, Alex, my dad, and our dog drove over to hurricane and ran Hurricane Cliffs trail.  Never done it before so it was fun to check out.  Had some nice climbs and sick downhill.  Funnest trail I done in a while.  The downhills were rad.  Those are my fav moments of running when your flying down some technical single track and a misstep could legit land you in the hospital, ahh the adrenaline.  Good stuff.  Out and back 6 miler.
