4th year running this race that the Hale Center Theatre in Orem puts on.  It is definitely a tradition for me and I look forward to it every year.  Mostly, like the guys mentioned I look forward to the Season tickets to the hale center and the pass to Thanksgiving point.:)

Julia, Rebecca & I ran the full 10k course as a warmup.

This 6 mile race is a pretty tough course.  The first 3 miles are a gradual downhill and then you climb back up to the theatre.  Spence asked me what my plan was and I told him to go out hard and then hang on...I think he thought I was kidding...I wasn't.  Splits were 6:16, 6:08, 6:14, 6:40, 6:45, 6:18.  I'm not super happy with the way that I ran.  I basically raced the first 3 miles and then threw in the towel.  Luckily Jen came out and found me with .75 miles to go and pulled me out of my funk and I kind of pulled it back together.  I'm a little frustrated that I ran slower than last year by 10 seconds but at the end of the day a win is a win and I cannot be dissapointed about that.  I think this is the longest I have ever gone in between races (3 months) and I think I am in an okay place moving forward with my training.  I know it is no excuse but having no one to push me really seemed to effect my time on Saturday.

This raced proved to me that physically I am in good shape.  I just need to get my heart, my passion, my drive back.  I will get there!  It was really fun to be back racing and to just feel the spirit and camraderie of the running community.  I feel really fortunate to be surrounded by such positive, talented, and supportive runners that continue to inspire me.  A great day for the sojourners club with wins in all races.  Matt & Scott are just machines and both ran awesome.  Always an absolute pleasure to see Brandon, Spencer, Jen, Amber, Marie, Rebecca, JulieC, Julia, and everyone else that raced so well.  Also great to have my parents, my boyfriend, and Josse & Des out cheering on the course.  Gosh I'm a lucky girl!

I probably should have skipped the Monday Tempo....but I felt good and thought maybe I'd benefit from some faster miles on fatigued legs.  2.5 mile warmup, 5 mile AT tempo 6:53, 6:48, 6:44, 6:39, 6:35, 2 mile cooldown. 9.5 total/71 minutes I felt okay and kept it pretty light but this was definitely a bit of a risk coming off of a race.  There is a fine line between getting a good workout in on tired legs and digging myself into an injury cycle/hole.  I'm still trying to learn it...  I plan on taking the next 2 days super easy and then a LR/workout on Thursday.

I really need to decide if I'm going to do the Half Marathon or 10K in Pheonix.

PM:  3 miles easy on SF river trail, 8:40 pace.  I felt so good which was weird because usually I'm exhausted on PM runs.

15.25 with Julia on Murdock, 8:24 pace.  2+ hours chatting away with my best friend...not a bad way to start my Thursday.  :)

Spence and Kenyan crew sightings this morning.  Nice to see so many people out and about.  Long static distance runs like todays remind me why I love running.  Sometimes it's nice to just throw the training plan out the window for a few days and run just to run!

What an adventure! Snowed in at Twin Falls on our way to Boise for a funeral. I forgot my yak traxs....who does that when they're going to Idaho. Anyway there was legit 3 inches of ice on the roads with fresh snow on top so running outside was not really an option. Hotel treadmill was calibrated and stuck at a 12% incline.....I made it .67 mi and realized I was risking injuring myself. Fortunately my parents understand (or just entertain) my crazy need to not function without a run and my Dad found our there was a Golds gym in Twin. Sweet! 7 miles at an 8 min pace. I asked the workers there why the don't plow the roads and they both laughed and said they do but it just keeps snowing.....welcome to Idaho!

3 mile wu, 6 mile tempo 6:42, 6:35, 6:31, 6:27, 6:22, 6:15.  1.75 mile cooldown.  10.75 miles/76 min.  I did not feel great today....not necessarily because the pace felt hard but I just felt unfocussed and like I couldn't ever get into a rythm.  My left shin was bothering me a bit on the cooldown so I think I'll be kind of cautious for a couple of days.

Later morning run after a 6am work meeting.  10 miles solo starting at Golds Gym on 800 north and running up Provo Canyon.  It was so nice to run up the canyon again without worrying about ice!  I did 12 x 1 min on/off on the way down and felt pretty good.  Running has been kind of off for me this week so It was nice to get some turnover going in my legs.  Ran the last mile a little faster on accident and hit a good marathon pace.  Overall pace for the run was 7:28.  A little wet out but overall a really nice morning. :)

8 miles in Las Vegas, 7:58 pace.  I usually kind of dread running in Vegas but this time I found a nice path about 1.5 miles from our hotel so it was much better because I didn't get stopped at a street light every quarter of a mile.

7 miles in Vegas on the same path as Saturday, 7:53 pace.  Windy and hot!  3rd day in a row that I kinda felt like crud running.

Treadmill tempo 3-2-1 workout.  2.25 mile warmup, 3 mile tempo 6:25 average, half mile jog, 2 mile tempo 6:13 average, half mile jog, 1 mile 5:58, .75 mile cooldown.  10 miles in 69:30.  I actually felt pretty good today which was nice after feeling like crap for so many days in row.  The last fast mile was definitely a bit of a push but felt controlled and I never felt like I was overdoing it.

8 miles with Julia on Murdock, 8:07 pace.  Another beautiful morning and great conversation with a good friend.  Running with a friend for an hour in the morning is the absolute best way ever to start the day.

3 mile warmup 1 mile @ 6:00 pace, and then right into 6 x 1 min on/off @ 5:42-5:45 pace, 2 min recovery at 8:00 pace and then 1 mile @ 5:56 pace.  2 mile cooldown.  Felt good today but pretty whipped after the workout.

PM:  2.5 mile shakeout run on the SF River Trail.  I was going so slow I was passed by a man that looked to be in his 80's.

7 miles easy recovery in the orchards, 8:13 pace.  Another really nice morning.  My legs are so fatigued and I felt like I was barely loafing around this morning.  My first mile was 9:04...it took me forever to get going.

12 miles with Rebecca in Provo Canyon.  7 miles easy, 3 mile tempo 6:11, 6:06, 6:01, 2 mile cooldown.  I felt much better than I thought I would today.  That pace felt good for 3 miles but I'm pretty sure I couldn't string it together for 80 minutes.  I really need to decide which race I am doing next weekend.  I feel like my training is more optimally primed for the 10k.....but wrapping my head around an all out 10k kind of terrifies me.  I think I just need to realize that if I decide to do the half that my race can only reflect the training that I've been doing which has lacked long tempos!

Really early treadmill tempo.  2.25 mile warm up, .5 to ease into it at 6:44, 6:25, 6:20, 6:13, 6:00, 1.25 mile cooldown.  I did most of the workout at 1.5-2% incline except the last mile.  Felt good today!

20 minutes strength training at home.

6.5 miles easy in the orchards, 7:40 pace.  I woke up with a head cold this morning and felt like I had no energy on this run.  My boyfriend and several of my employees have been sick so I can't say I'm really surprised.  This seems to happen to me everytime I taper but I think I can fight it off by Saturday.

Off to Phoenix in the morning.  I'm looking forward to sunshine and a fun girls trip. :)

7 with Julia on the canal trail in Phoenix, 8:02 pace. Energy is low but feeling better than yesterday. I think I literally slept 15 hours yesterday. I haven't been this wiped out from illness in a long time but I'm hoping I'm on the mend.
