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 a bad attitude about this workout but I decided to show up anyway and if I wasn't feeling it I would just jog around while everyone else did the workout.  The plan was 6 x 1200's on Christensen's loop in Salem.  This is a really hilly loop that is exactly 1200.  I was a little late and skipped the first 1200 to get a longer wu.

5 x 1200 with 1-2 minute active jogging recovery in between sets.  4:13, 4:07, 4:05, 4:10, 4:01.  + 1 400 in 85ish seconds.  I didn't time anything but Jen timed me on her stop watch.  I'm glad I have awesome friends for these days when I'm totally unmotivated.  I felt pretty good once I just got rolling.  I have no idea what pace those are but it felt like a good effort and my legs were shot afterwards.  9.5 miles total.

PM:  Jogged for 34 minutes in the heat.  I had no watch but am estimating around 4 miles.  Definitely not any more than that...it was stupid slow.

The pace? FAST! I'm not great at math, but it's definitely some quality sub-6. So soon after your speedy racing! How are your feet?

Impressive workout! Especially given that you were not motivated (which happens to all of us sometimes). Doing a workout under those conditions definitely builds toughness, mental strength, and fitness. Nice work!
