Keep Calm and Run On

And now in the full swing of winter training. I have never done winter training (I have usually been in XC season) but it is exactly what I need right now as I build base miles and working on running with the team and pushing myself. Today was a 15 minute threshold. My legs were not as tired as last week's but it was 5 minutes longer. I stuck with a teammate and we were able to push each other when it was really hard. 

Recovery run

Today was hills at the temple. We only did 2 and I really need to work on my hill running. 

Recovery

Halloween run today! I was a dinosaur this year. We ran recovery miles on Provo River Trail. 

Today was a struggle. I was in Salt Lake and had to do the 30 minute tempo alone. I was tired and didn't want to. I started and was running along Foothill Drive and running against the wind. Not worth it. So I turned around and ran the other way and got a nice break until the last 1.25 miles of the tempo. Several times I wanted to stop early, but I finished the 30 minutes with an average of 6:57.
