4.25 miles nice & easy.  Just wanted to make sure my left knee was okay for the race Monday.  Sore but otherwise fine.

Jogged from my house to the start with Josse & Julia 2.5 mi.  Coming off of the 20 mile trail run + epic fall of the century I kind of knew this race would not be pretty.  It did not dissapoint and was very not pretty.  It is a positive split course which I just completely suck at.  Oh well it was a great workout nonetheless and a very fun morning with family and friends!  6:13, 6:11, 6:19, 6:24, 6:34, 6:28, 1:24.  I think I got my heart rate up too high too early and I just couldn't ever relax and never felt comfortable.  It felt really forced and I was super happy to be done.

My parents got home from Las Vegas at 3:30am on Monday morning and came to cheer for me and watch me finish.  My Mom was at mile 5.8 and my Dad at the finish.  My boyfriend was also at the finish and came to watch me even though he had a really lonnnnng day at work ahead.  I seriously have the coolest people in my life!  So thankful for the ability to run, the amazing support system I have, and the running community.  My training partner Jen won the 5K and my friend Julia won 2nd in her age group in the 10k.  Also fun to see Scott, Melissa, Josse, Rachel and so many others run great races.  Payson Onion Days puts on a really great race!

10 miles with Jen in the orchards, 7:50ish pace.  Sore and tired but good conversation to kick start the work week.

3 mile warmup to the track, 8:28 pace.  12 x 200's on/off, effort based, with equal recovery + 1 mile at HMP.  I did not really time the 200s but the effort was there and I hit 6:35 min miles for all 3 with no stopping and including jogging time.  Love these shorter intervals. 6:15 for the HMP mile on very fatigued legs.

You know you are wasted when the cooldown trot home is at a 9:02 pace!  Legs are trashed.

PM:  4.5 easy in Provo Canyon with Cam, 8ish pace.  I made him stop & walk the last half mi with me.  wa, wa, wa!

Free 5k/10k fun run tonight in Payson starting at 6:30 at South County Lanes Bowling alley.  It is a silent auction/fundraiser for Addict 2 Athletes.  Come on down and participate and we will get the real competition started in the bowling alley after the race. http://addicttoathlete.org/annual-5k/

PM:  Pushed my nephew in the jogging stroller for the Addict to Athlete 5k, 8:54 pace.  This was so much fun!  I stayed with Julia & my sister and we just had a good time.  So many people in my life (including myself) that have suffered from addiction at some point in there lifes.  I was honored to support such a great cause and it turned out to be such a beautiful night to run.

Paced 1:30 at the Nebo half marathon.  Finish time was 1:29:46.  I paced with Mack and we were able to push our friend Amber to a PR of 1:28.  It was a really fun day and I was incredibly happy to be pacing rather than racing.  The morning was really funny so I better tell it because I'm going to want record of it somewhere...

The Pace Group leader Jorge text me early Sat morning to say he had an extra bib for Julia.  I didn't see the text until I woke up at 5:30....I was planning to get to the busses at 5:45 and had slept in my running clothes.  Anyway I hurried and woke Julia up and we made it to the last bus at 6am.  It worked out because we had free range of the porta potties at the finish line and I hate getting to races early.  I also had about zero ambition to jog a warmup at 9,000 feet elevation so all was well...I just needed to get there before the gun went off because I was afterall a pacer.  About halfway up the canyon the bus driver pulled off the side of the road and just casually said....Ahhh I think the bus is on fire....the engine is at 250 degrees and it is smoking.  haha all I could do was laugh because seriously this was hilarious!  There were only about 15 of us on the late bus and we had no cellphone service.  huh it was 6:35 and I needed to figure out a way to get to the start (we were at mile 7 of the race).  I finally flagged down a police officer and talked him into escorting Julia, a friend we made, and I to the start.  Perfect we got there at 6:55!  It was pretty comical and I was bummed that the cop wouldn't turn the cherries & berries on to escort us in!
