Speed Intervals on the TM.  

Great day at work, sold shoes to RAD.  I had fun visiting with her in the store a little bit and seeing her cute kids.  She brought me the most DELICIOUS cookie from Smart Cookie, yum :). Thank you RAD!

Beautiful run up A.F. Canyon.  4 miles slow up, 4 fast down.  2 miles were 6:32!  AP 8:12

I have to get to the gym later to do some Xtraining, and my bike has been neglected.  

Weights for an hour in the evening.

10 miles on the JRP.  AP 8:05.  My legs were sluggish on the uphill.  

I will go later to do bike, weights and more.  

Last night I met with my RedRock Relay team.  I am so excited!  It will be fun hanging out with a bunch of marrieds!  They all seem like serious runners, but low-key at the same time.  I will be running leg 6. 

Rode up to Suncrest that evening in the 90 degree weather.  Nice ride, was happy that I did it.

I did better than I expected!  I didn't know if I would be able to do 45 min, so I surprised myself.  I have not done a 10k for years, so I don't know really what I was up against, as far as times.  Loved the downhill course.  I struggled the last mile.  Overall pace 7:01. I was first in my division because I am Athena!!!!  Yay for Athena!!!  Nice to have a speedy race to build running confidence.

So many cool people were at this race.  I saw Teena, Smooth, Shimelle, Julie, and RAD!!!  I met Sasha, so great to finally meet him, (he is so dang fast!) I then waited to see the winners of the marathon come in, so inspiring!  Allie looked so strong as she won the marathon, and it gave me chills to watch her cross the finish line. 

Marvelous race!

Slept in, when I woke up I didn't know where I was, or what day it was.  It was 6:30 and it looked pretty cool outside, so I went out for a run with little motivation.  Slow pace, sleepy day, and no motivation.  My body felt depleted and I didn't know if I would be able to run even 10 miles.  Ran up toward Suncrest, and decided that hill was NOT going to happen today. so I headed toward Alpine.  Took a GU at mile 6, and it tasted surprisingly good.  Body felt great after that.  My music was dead today, and I was proud of myself for going so long without any company.  

AP: 8:40
