I ran 7.5 miles in the morning with Neal. My legs were still a little bit tired from Saturday.

I later did 4.5 by myself really easy. I felt less fatigued than this morning.

I did 400's with Neal and Pete today. I did six, they did eight. My times were 64, 64, 64,  64, 64, 60. I also did a 200 in 28. I was pretty sore and tired, but I was able to stay with them on the first five, and I was several seconds ahead on my last one.

I went home to open my mission call today, so I worked out with Skyline. I warmed up with them and did four 1200s. I only did one hard though. I did the first one with Morgan in 3:45. I did the other three with other people and they were more like 4:45. I then cooled down with them.

 

By the way, I got my mission call today. I'm going to Albuquerque, New Mexico. I leave May 20th.

I did a fartlek with Neal and Pete today. We did 5 three minute pushes. I was a little bit back on the first, ahead of Pete on the second, a little bit back on the third, same on the fourth, and ahead of Pete and right with Neal on the last one. The last one was really hard. Neal and I both pushed it really hard. I think that's the fastest I've finished an interval, and the hardest I pushed at the end. We both wouldn't give up. I cooled down about four miles.

I didn't run today. It was snowing pretty hard and I just couldn't get myself to go out and run.

I ran fourteen miles with Neal today. We did the same loop as last time, I just added some more on at the end. We kept a pretty good pace, but not very fast. We saw Mary Ann on the trail and ran a few miles with her. I didn't feel very good and was glad to be done.
