AM- Workout at Liberty Park. Usual 1 lap warm up and 10 strides. We ran 2x mile and then an 800. The first repeat I almost fell flat on my face (it was a miracle I recovered and kept rule #1 'stay on your feet') My first mile was 5:44, the second was 5:36. My 800 was 2:36. Tomy and I ran a 4 mile cool down. My legs were pretty tired.
I met Tomy at Sugarhouse for a run. We ran one big lap around the park for a warm up, then he did his workout while I ran laps on the road. I finished at 6 and then we ran the cemetery run to finish at 12. My legs were really tired and hammies sore today.
AM- I ran 4 miles with Danica and Laura. Yes, we got flipped off for wearing our BYU tanks. The joys of living in Ute country. I added another 3 miles and felt pretty beat still.
PM- I ran another 5 before we headed to Provo. It's time for camp!!
It feels oh so glorious to finish a long week with only 8 miles! I did a happy dance after my workout. This morning was the threshold. It was freezing cold when we started. We ran about 2.5 warm up before starting. I had 2 goals for the camp threshold this year- stick with the lead group and average 6 flat pace. Fortunately, we actually started at the right place and it was 2.9 miles long. We eased into it which helped. My first mile was 6:10 and then the lead group started to pull away. There were 6 of us in a group all pushing- the second mile was 6 flat. One girl dropped before the finish, but 5 of us finished in a line with a time of 17:24 and average 6 flat. Score. It felt amazing to have girls to push with and work with. I really hope we can keep that up this season- it will make a world of difference.
