Wow, it was super warm out tonight! I was in shorts and a long sleeved tech shirt. I ran down to the River Park Trail on 104th south to 114th south and up to the kasa. Somebody honked and screamed my name. I dont know how they recognized me because it was dark.

I  went to the Olympic Oval and did a 1.5 mile warmup and then 8x800's with a 400 recovery. I did 2:37's down to 2:32 and then ended with a 2:35.  Nice to sting the legs again. I am going to run the 15k saturday so Ill do a nice easy run tomorrow and see how my first race of the season goes.

I ran from my house halfway up to Danielle's and met her and we ran down around my neighborhood loop to get 6 in.  It was really cold this morning.

I got out to Saltair and it was borderline turning my car around and going home from the wind gusting at gruesome proportions! It was nasty nasty! I saw Josse right away and she said it was super nice by her house. Lucky!  I got my number and did a 3 mile warmup  and ran into Jake and Rob. It was blowing so hard that we found we had to run side by side because it was a crosswind and it would literally push you off of a straight line.  We went inside and waited for the start and then when we went out the wind subsided a bit.  Much better. We started and we had a tail-crosswind pushing us out. Then coming back it was in our faces. Im really not good at pushing in a race when I have to contend with that. It feels like im going no where and overworking myself to try and hit a 6 pace. It frustrates me.  My times were 1. 5:21, 2: 5:40, 3. 5:38, 4. 5:34, 5. 5:38, 6. 6:09, 7. 6:14, 8. 5:55, 9. 5:47.  I was able to muster up some push for those last two.  I then did a 4 mile cool down with Fritz, Jake, Rob, Andrea, Josse, Bill. I won $50.00 for first in Masters which I wasnt expecting so it made toughing it out even better.
