Running Accomplishments:

Quantcast

 I ran for Utah State University for a few years from 1999-2002. I got a little burned out and took a break from running. Now 10 years later, I feel that there is still faster running left to accomplish. I started running again in mid-summer of 2012. I had a short spurt in 2009, but work got in the way.

High altitude training in Herriman UT after my interview. Temps were great. 65 shorts and short sleeves. :) It is spring here.

Last 4.5 mile were tempo AP 5:51 

I felt good with the run and tempo because even the easy miles felt labored a little due to the alt differance.

Longest run of the training cycle. It was not a very pace fast but I was tired. Likely becasue I didn't eat well before. So it was good to dig into the glucosr storage.

MP Tempo interval run @ slightly faster than goal MP 1-2-3-2-1 mi (AP 6:03) intervals with 1 mi wu, inbetween, and cooldown. This run felt more like threshold miles. It was a hard workout. When you have a bad workout like this one so close to the marathon it plays with your head and gives you dought on you readiness for the marathon.
