Turn your rut into a groove.

pm--6 After being inspired by the kiddos and their Michigan workout, I decided to strap on the Streak XC and hop on the tready for my own Michigan. I'm not sure on the splits but ended up w/ 29:07. It's not quite comparable to what a few of the girls threw down, what w/ the terrain and the heat, but felt pretty good for an old guy. I had the tready set at 1.5% grade. The first 800 was ~6:50. The first 1.5 was ~6:55. The second 800 was ~6:40, and the second 1.5 was ~6:50. The fast 400 was ~6:20. I took the 5k sections a bit slow but was strong on the 10k sections. It felt good overall. The calves are tizight. RHR--53.

am--5 First day of Autumn. AC+/Harts. The run was decently peppy. My legs are still a bit tight but feel pretty good. RHR--49.

pm--6.5 A run out on Telegraph and back to the school via DI. We had a decent fast finish from the Running Center. Screwed up and cut it a few minutes short. 

pm--7 A nice run w/ the neighbor. My legs are still a bit tight from Monday, but things flushed out after I got into the run. RHR--54.

am--5.5 Pizza/AC+/Pizza. Nice run on a nearly Fallesque morning. It will come. It will come. RHR--57.

pm--3 Traditional pre-race Sandberg's run. Nothing spectacular, but I was lagging. 

am--10.25 Got to sleep in a tad because of the meet today, so I decided to put in a longer run for this old guy. Headed up into Ivins and back into Santa Clara via Lava Ridge. A run that is 20-30 minutes longer than what you normally do is difficult. I know that a good 10-miler 2x a week would do a lot for me as a person and as a runner. Perhaps I can figure that out. RHR--57.

am--3.75 Raining in the run at the Wahsatch Invite. The team did well. The trip was fun. Glad it's over though.
