Workout was 30 x 1 minute on 1 minute off fartlek. On our way to Sugarhouse I asked Bill what it was and he told me, I honestly thought he was kidding. No way were we gonna do 30. We got to the Park and went to the entrance by Highland and told everyone else, which was when I figured out he wasn't kidding. My mood dropped a ton right then, I already was thinking there's no way I was gonna be able to finish 30. We did them around the perimeter of the park. I fell off Bill maybe 10 repeats in. It only took 20 repeats for me to stop thinking negatively. Ha :) At that point I had the thought "What if I caught back up to Bill?" He had a pretty large gap on me but I could still see him, probably 200 meters. I caught him with 3 repeats left. Finished 8.61 miles in the hour so 6:58 average pace, and that's with 30 minutes of running slow! Then ran back to the track and decided to add to 14 because I hate uneven numbers, especially ones starting with 13. :) Good workout, but now my legs hurt.
