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.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

I had to start this run way earlier this morning since I had babysitting duties starting at 7:30 am.  I did a 4 mile warmup jogging to the Payson HS track 8:30 pace, dragging the entire way and dreading the track workout that lied ahead.  haha

12 x 400 meter repeats.  First 9 @ the track with 200 meter rest all around 90 seconds.  I did not reset my watch for each rep so I don't have exact times but they were all right around 90 give or take a few seconds.  I did the last 3 on the way back to my house since I was running late.  This workout was HARD and made me realize I need to do these shorter repeats more often.  Once a week from here on out.  I am committed...to the track. :)

Overall pace for the run including the very slow cool down and warm up was 7:42.  Looking back I wish I would have just taken the time to time each repeat but there is always next time.  That is a lot of times I just included in one sentence. ha! 

PM:  2.5 miles with my sister pushing my nephew in the jogging stroller. 9:56 pace.  My right shin was bothering me a bit on the run which is not a good sign considering I was barely jogging.

YoU are definitely on track for a sub 20. Nice job. 12x400 is one of my favorite workouts

Speed work is always hard! Great job this morning.

Woot! Nice job. When my calf is better and if you want, we can do these together. It just goes by faster. I bet Merri will join too!

I wish I lived closer, then I would come join later this summer :) great work, I always dread speed work too, but I'm always glad when it's done that I did it.

ice that baby!!! and lily has some good shin/calf healing advice on her blog :)

I need to incorporate more of this kind of speed work into my running life, but it is so hard mentally to tackle!

GREAT JOB on the speedwork! You must be a WONDERFUL babysitter! :)
