It's a RUNderful life

I'm baaaaaack! So Ecuador was amazing except for the fact that I only got to run once, and just 2.5 miles. It was SUCH a sick run, but it was barely a run. So point being I'm very out of shape... however practice today wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be thank goodness. Mile wu to the cemetery and then whistle hills. Stomach felt a little queasy through out, but felt good overall and it was a solid wourkout. Finished up low mileage after, looping down over the overpass to Wine's park and then back up. After did abs and hips. 

*HUMONGOUS shoutout to Baby Alvizo (aka Emre)

*Shoutout to all my awesome buddies who I missed so much while I was gone!

Mile wu and then a low (much needed) recovery run. Seriously this is the first time I've been sore from running in over a year. Included in mileage was 2 miles of barefoot grass running behind the school with the one and only Sami. Way great to see that girl. Finished up rest of mileage with the two-mile loop. 8:20ap

mile wu to the cemetary and then a game of 4-way capture the flag. shoutout to my nest cuz we definitely won. after did the rest of mileage at the slower end of easy pace; 7:35ap.

Medium recovery today. I was definitely feeling super sore today so the miles was for sure on the slow side (8:30ap) but my body definitely needed it. Did the double-dip loop which is always a good one. After did some weights.

Mile wu to the junior high and then mile repeats - yipee! Honestly didn't feel so great on the wu so i was worried it was gonna be a super rough workout, but it ended up being okay once my legs got going. Workout was 3 mile repeats with 5 min rest inbetween. My splits ended up being 6:25, 6:32, 6:30, which I felt okay about. It was definitely a tough course cuz the grass was really long and there were a LOT of turns. After finished up mileage by doing 5 more at 8:20 pace up into highland then back down. Felt surprisingly good on the cd. Also HUGE shoutout to Allison Pray for doing the workout with us and then being my running buddy for the cd. What a cool girl. 

Met Gups and Gan at Lehi today and did a good 6 mile out-and-back to the reservoir, and then Gan and I did a barefoot turf mile when we got back. Legs felt pretty darn tired and took a long time to warm up, so it was a good thing our route was flat as a pancake. 8:05ap.
