Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

| Power Trail to Poudre Trail. Tried to do 2x3-mile tempo intervals, but it was close to 80 degrees out, and all of the water fountains along the trail were still turned off. Needless to say, the workout was not optimal. First set was 5:24, 5:27, 5:27. Did 3-minute recovery jog. Next set was 5:33, 5:28, and then I shut down the workout, and jogged it in. Felt like if I pushed another mile, bad things would have happened. It was better than nothing, but with the weather finally warming to summer temperatures, I probably need to start doing workouts in the morning before work, rather than during my lunch break. 14 miles total, averaged 6:24/mile.

| Bacon Strip for one last hilly run before Bolder Boulder. Did one full loop, and then an out-and-back for a total of 18 miles. Did 6 miles of MP tempo on the second part of the first loop, but couldn't get much going. Ran these miles at 5:40-5:50 pace. During the last 4 miles of the run, I did a fartlek of 60s on, 45s off. Had a net downhill and a tailwind for this segment, so it felt alright, a good way to finish off a long run. I think I ended up with 12 or 13 intervals. Averaged 6:25/mile overall for the 18 miles. |
