Today was a good run. I was able to keep up with Chris and Garek for most of it. We ran to Fairmont and did strides, then to Liberty and did a lap of fireman, then long way around and back to the track to finish to 9. Averaged 7:05.

Today we did a bit of speed. We did 2 grass laps warmup avoiding the hill, then went to the asphalt hill and did 5 of those, then went back up and started the workout. We did 2 200s (36, 35) to open up stride. On the second one I got hit in the head with a football, thanks football players, it felt really good. Anyway, we then did 2 400s (80, 82) and then 2 800s (2:48, 2:50.) I was supposed to hit 85s for the 400s and 2:50 for the 800s. So it was too fast. But it was weird, I was feeling crappy and sick to my stomach. Normally when I feel that way I do bad in the workout. Like half of the team was hurting or sore or something, so Bill decided to change it and we'll do a better speed workout on thursday. We did one more 400 and called it good, but everyone was to hit their time (84 - actually had to slow down the last 200 - 100 meters to hit it close.) I kinda wish we had gotten it over with but you gotta do what the team needs. Maybe on thursday I can actually be consistently hitting the right times. Then we did VA loop and finished to 3, then got free donuts at Banbury Cross, which were delicious!

Recovery run today, although it felt faster than being relaxed? Averaged 7:33 and got down below 7 pace a few times. Lowest mile split was 7:06, but we did jump around a bit with the pace. Felt tight. It was the run up to the zoo and along wasatch to thunderbird and the flagpole then back along foothill to 13th to 19th to Sunnyside and back to the track.

Morning speed workout today, 2 miles warmup to foothill and back, then hill strides. We did 2 400s (84, 80) then 1600 (5:53) and 3 more 400s (81, 79, 80). Then Olivia, Clara and I had to leave for St. George! So no cool down.

Janet drove Olivia, Clara and I to the trail we run on in St. George for Footlocker and we ran on that. But we started from the other end. Or I should say the end closest to the turnaround. Anyway, 40 minutes is what Bill said to do, so I went out 20 and back, although I went a bit slower on the way back so It was actually 41:33. :/ I felt great to start off then when I turned around it didn't seem like so much fun. Idk why it just didn't. I could see the gas station we stop at for Footlocker so that was fun and I recognized random parts of the trail.

We were supposed to do a full hour today, but we didn't have time so we did what we could. Went to the trail again, turned around a little sooner than yesterday because I was going slower, wanted to relax a little more. My legs felt a little tight at that 20 minute mark so I stopped to stretch and felt much better after. Then threw in a bit of fartlek, (5x 1 minute on 1 minute off) it really helped get over the mental factor of having to go back. The trail isn't even hard, I think it was just the out and back part of it and the trail seems to go on forever. Today I did feel more tired due to lack of sleep (ha). Once I got back Olivia and Clara were still coming back so I added along a bridge and back along the trail until I met up with them and came back with them. St. George is awesome
