16x400 with 300 meter active rest. 

Warmed up from my house and met the guys at the track. Ben, Albert, and I grouped up and made each other hurt. For the last 8, Ben and I switched who led into the evil headwind on the west straightaway (Weatherbug listed 25-30 mph gusts). I was sure I was dead about 6 in (you can see my slowest one there 6 in), but I buckled down and just took them one at a time.

Cold snowy run in South Ogden with Ken Ben Riley and Denver. This weather is nuts. I was shirtless on the track in the 60s yesterday. Blowing snow in the 30s 24 hours later. Bat shiz crazy.

​​met Bret at his condo in Vegas and our run turned into a harder effort than expected. 7 fast miles and 4 pushed miles slightly uphill. 5:41 pace for the 7 mile tempo. 6:11 pace for the whole run.
