On the road to BOSTON!

Easy steady run from downtown SG to home. 9:00 min warmup mile then decided to focus on keeping the pace under 8:00 for the remainder of the run. I ended up with a 7:55 average including the 9 first mile so I accomplished that goal and had a lot of speed left in meas I ended the workout with a 3/4 mile burst keeping it under 7, with the last part down to 5:10 pace.

Taking the warmup mile off I averaged 7:24 pace

PM added another 4 1/2 miles on the Bloomington trail- 7:45 pace and 61 degrees

Forgot my garmin today- Ran from Dixie Eye up Diagonal to Sunset to Valley View to home-Based on the clock I ran approx.8 minute miles- slower at first but had a strong finish

Dixie Center/ Tonaquint extended around Bloomington Drive- 8:06 pace for the run

Out to River Road overpass and back- 7:57 pace

Light rain as I head out the door....5 minutes later I am in a hail storm....pretty cool. The legs felt pretty fresh this morning after the long run yesterday. 7:45 pace just steady...

Working on 60 miles this week, should get it easy with a good run in the morning.

Started at the church by Washington Damn Road and ran up to Coral Canyon and then back down. Made a few wrong turns that made for extra climbing....got to the top and noticed some guys running about 1/2 miles ahead and worked hard to catch them going down the Dogtown course. Finally at the bridge at the bottom of Washington Damn Road I caught Lindsey Pugmire and 3 others. I had to push the pace to catch them and then work hard to stay with them to the car. Last mile was 6:21 pace. Overall a very good run. Going up was hard and slow 8:45 pace and I ended up with 7:59 for the run. Legs and breathing feel awesome! Now I just need to get the right foot feeling better with the Neuromas. Really started hurting at 13 miles when I was done....I feel right now that I can PR Boston in 9 weeks if I can keep my foot under control
