No running today. Trying to get well from whatever sickness I have had for the past week or so.

Tonight I decided to go over to sugarhouse park. I met up with Larry there. For a warm up we started with jogging for 50 meters, then sprinting, then with no arms for 100 meters, then for 50 meters having one arm behind our back then the other arm for the other 50 meters. Then the workout was 3 200s at a nice easy stride pace. I did my 200s at 40 pace, again my legs felt fine but my lungs hurt really bad. We did a 200 recovery after each. Then for a cooldown I  just finished out the lap after the third 200.

Today we started with 2 vertical laps then dynamic stretching then breaking into our groups. The distance group jogged up to the track then from the track ran up to foothill down past the VA and along guardsman for a warm up. Then at the track we did one mile of speed changes then changed shoes. For the workout it was 2 sets of 4 300s with jogging 100 recovery. I was in a group with Natalie, Bill and Nate. Our time was 55 seconds for each. On the first one Natalie and I both forgot to hit lap on our Garmins so I did about 50 meters into it. Our first one on my watch said 45 seconds so im assuming we were on pace. At this point I was only coughing a little bit and I was feeling good. On the second one our time was 53 so we were still good. I was really tired after this one, well not my legs but my lungs are what really hurt. Then I had to go because I had to go to peer court. So I could only get in 2 of the 8:( which is a really bad thing actually because Simplot is in less than a week and I am tired after 2 300s! I need to get my lungs back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any suggestions?!?!?!?!?

Today I went over to Sugarhouse park and met up with Larry and Levi. Levi brought a friend tonight there was me, Larry, Levi, and Kevin. So we all did a lap warm up then we stretched. Then Levi and Kevin and I did a lap of one on one off of lightposts just to loosen up our legs then we did a lap cooldown. My lungs really hurt after this run but I did not cough as much and I could sort of breath better so I am getting better!

This morning I went over to Sugarhouse park to meet up with Larry, Levi and Kevin but another guy came! His name is Danny and he is a 4:20 miler so he is good, He is Larry's friend when Larry was an Elite runner. So Levi, Kevin and I did a big lap around the park because Danny and Larry were not there yet. Then we met up the Danny and Larry and started the workout. It was a strength workout for me for Simplot this week. We did 1x1x2x1x3x1x4x1x3x1x2x1x1x1 with the first one being the time we were on then off then on, so on. We did this workout just under one lap around the park so we were thinking just to take the rest of the park as a cooldown...... That didn't happen! My lungs were really hurting and it was really hard to keep up the Danny! Then when we got back to the cars, Danny decides to talk everybody into a 5 mile cooldown so I would be 5.5 miles over my mileage for the week! But I decide to go. We run up to 3300 south, over to I think Imperial street, down to 2700 south, up to 1800 East taking 1800 east back to the park. When we get about halfway down imperial street I decide to pull a 30 second stride with me and since we all need to stay as a group everyone has to go with me. I push it and make it just over 200 meters so I am getting my speed back! Kevin couldn't stay up with us but Danny and Levi did stay up with us. When we got back to the cars, I about passed out because that was the longest run I have done in about a week and a half!
