Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences. I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn. I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.

Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
5.50	6.00	11.50

11.5 in the orchards with 2 x 3 miles, 7:03 pace. I wanted the first set to be a comfortable marathon pace and the second set a little faster with really hammering the last mile.

#1: 6:41, 6:16, 6:28 - this looks ugly but it is course adjusted. First mi gradual uphill, second mile gradual downhill, last mile flat.

#2: 6:29, 6:22, 6:02 - conservative start but I was really able to push that last mile which felt good. I'd like to say it was comfortable but it kicked my butt.

I'm making progress. I'm frustrated with how uncomfortable running fast feels right now but I think I just need to get more comfortable with feeling uncomfortable! Also the wind was a major issue this morning. It was relentless.

Great work out... fast last mile too! :) This spring wind is always the worst.

I think you hit it right on with getting comfortable feeling uncomfortable.. A couple more of these at that pace and you'll feel at home again. Great pacing, too!

beautiful tempo run Rachelle! That last 6:02 is a great indicator, not to mention the wind!
