| I ran Eagle View with Nathan. I thought I was going to end up running alone, and was planning to push the pace a little, but Nathan showed up at the last minute and we ended up pushing the pace a lot. Even though Nathan had run fast in the Hurricane 1/2 Marathon on Saturday, and he said his legs were a little stiff, he still easily outran me. He beat me up the hill by 12+ seconds. He let me catch up there, and had to stop at a light on the way back where I caught up again, but still he finished another 12+ seconds ahead of me on the return trip. Even though I couldn't keep up with Nathan, I did set a new PR for this course at 37:27 (7:29/mi). I think part of this was due to the fact that I didn't run in the morning before this run (like I usually do), and I only did a light run on Saturday.

| I normally run in the morning on Tuesday, but Larry was sick so I ran at lunch time today. I didn't have my Garmin, so I just ran a "clear my head" run down Kuhni road not worrying too much about how fast I was going, but trying to keep moving at a respectable pace. I measured the distance on Google Earth to be about 5.4 miles. I went out in 22:12 and back in 22:22, maintaining a pretty consistent pace for the entire run. My total time was 44:34 (8:15/mi). | | Add Comment |

| I did the Lake View run with Tom, Nathan, and Cory. We didn't push all out but held a pretty good pace throughout the run. I didn't have my Garmin but clocked on overall time of 40:18 (20:50 out, 19:28 back). Estimating 5.2 miles for the run, the average pace was 7:45/mi (8:01/mi out, 7:29/mi back). I think Nathan's Garmin showed a 7:39 average pace, and Tom's 7:40, so the distance may be slightly more than 5.2.

I ran up Provo Canyon with Larry, Wayne, Kerry, Nathan, Ryan, and Ryan's wife. Most of us went from the mouth up to Vivian and back. Nathan and Wayne continued up South Fork for longer runs. We started out at about a 9:00/mi pace but it kept getting faster and faster as I tried to stay with Wayne, Kerry, Nathan, and Ryan. We averaged 8:33/mi for the first 4.76 miles. At that point I was curious how fast we were going so I reset the lap. The last 1.06 miles up to Vivian was at 7:34/mi. That may have been the fastest pace I've run on the up portion of this run. I ran with Kerry most of the way back. We averaged 8:10/mi for the 4.9 miles down to the fountain by Timpanogos Park. We met back up with Larry and Ryan and this point, and started running again as Ryan's wife went past. We averaged 7:57/mi for the last 0.87 miles. The weather was great and the companionship was even better. I really enjoyed the run. | | Comments(1) |
