Run Till You Drop!!

7 easy miles going north on the trail by my house. As I look back on my half on Saturday I am really happy about my performance. If I did not run Boston that close I think I would have ran around a 1:06 high something. So that gives me confidence going into the rest of the season. Calves were a little tight today but I should feel much better later this week.

I warmed up for a few miles. Then I ran 4 by 3 min push's again, wish rest being 3 min as well.

Each push was about 5 min pace felt good.

I came to price today for work so I had to run as soon as we got to the hotel. I was going to go easy but then was pressed for time so I ran a good solid fast run.

6:27, 6:16, 6:04, 6:00, 5:57, 6:13, 5:47

Felt pretty good, legs were tired but felt pretty good after a mile or so. I tried to make it seem as easy as possible and it did. This was a confidence builder that I am getting back into race shape and that I have not lost too much fitness having the lower miles.

Easy 4 miler. My wife was in a hurry to go somewhere so I was limited on my time to run today. Next time I will need to be smarter and just run in the morning so I can go longer. Calves feel a little sore from yesterday's workout.

Easy 8 miler, Legs still feel a little heavy

I woke and went running on the paved trail by my house. I ran 3 miles for a warm up then I did 3 miles at tempo pace.

My tempo pace went from: 5:30, 5:34, 5:30

I ran easy the rest of the run. It was an awesome run it got warm then it started to rain, then was not bad when the rain stopped.  I am trying to get my body use to longer runs so I will be ready for Utah Valley Marathon in a month. I have much work to do in a month so I hope I can get where I need to be.
