Ran 12 miles in the gully by running the Gully Long run twice. 

I'll be honest, I had a crappy workout today. I started off great and felt awesome but as the run progressed, I began to feel more and more sick. It got to a point where I had to fall back and take my own pace. I finished the 1st loop quite nauseous and began the second. About 2 miles into the second loop, I ran over to the side of the trail and emptied my stomach, then kept going to finish. Felt a little better after that, but was still pretty sick.

Had an amazing workout today. We ran 12 X 400 M @ 75-70 with 1-2 minutes rest. 

We started out pretty good, the wind was off and on throughout the workout, but when it was blowing it was blowing hard. We started out 2 min rest between reps for the first 2 reps, 1:30 rest for the next 2 reps, and then 1:15 rest for the rest. We decided that 1:15 rest was good enough to recover enough that each rep was still hard. Ended the workout fast and ran a 1.5 mile cool down.

I got my ACT score back today and I got a 30. Super excited about that.

Ran 10 milese of just hills.

So by Alta there is a a couple of neighborhoods next to eachother that all have a hill in them and so I ran up and down those hills for 10 miles. I included the strava workout so you guys can get a better idea of what I did. Anyway it was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, but I liked it.

I finally got new shoes so my knees will stop hurting. I got two pairs so that I can switch them out and give one pair a break for a day. I got the Saucony Grid Phantom and the Saucony Grid Cohesion 10. Can't wait to get running in them on Monday.
