Met the girls at Kohl's and we ran down to the Byu 5k course that i am running on sat.  I was tired and was discouraged after i ran.  I feel like every run is a tempo run.

Took my 7 year old to run the half mile race.  He has shown an interest in running and did a mile race a couple of weeks ago in 8:44.  Today he did the half mile in 4:00,  super proud of him.

I warmed about 1.5 miles, i like a longer warm up it helps my back loosen up.  But that is all i had time for.  Saw Kristie and the start and we were off.  The 1st half mile is a  pretty good up hill followed by a mile of down and finishing with a flat mile.  The ending was different than last time i did this race.  You turned at the smith field house and went up and turned and then went through these little underpasses and turns and finally making it on to the track.  I didn't feel it from the get go and knew I was going to do any thing to brag about so I just ran with one fast mile in the middle.  I guess I need to work on shorter speed if I want to break 20 in the 5k.  But I don't really care that much right now,  I just want to run pain free for now.

7:02, 6:22, 7:04, 6:39 pace for the last .14

Cooled down with Kristie, Maryanne, and a former byu runner named Whitney.  Kristie and maryanne turned after a half mile and me and Whitney continue on for a 5 mile cool down.  I wanted more but had to get home.

Met Rebecca at TV to do 1x1600 and 4x400 times 2 we warmed up a mile and did  the first TV mile in 6:04, was going to do the 400's on the track but they lock it up so we did them on a flat part of the road.  1st set 1:29, 1:31, 1:30, 1:34.  Then ran back about half mile and did the flater part of the TV mile in 6:19 wanted to be done but did the last 400's in 1:42(uphill), 1:35, 1:30, 1:30.  Iliopsoas was  bugging me yesterday and was a little buggy at the end of the workout.

Melody and myself meet Mckenzie down in SF.  We ran into Beth and Aubrey and later pick up Kent and Pat for a little bit.  I felt pretty good considering I felt like I was coming down with the flu last night and I always feel like I am on the edge of getting some crazy injury.  The morning was super mild, I could live with this weather forever.

Still sick but I got up and met Rebecca and Desi at tv to do a 4 mile tempo,  I felt awefull and shouldn't have done it.  I ended up feeling really bad through out the day and at night.

Tempo miles were 7:33, 7:12, 7:09, 7:01 the 1st 2.75 were rolling and then a mile of down and ending uphill.

Met the girls at Hale center th. to do the 10k course, it is a beast.  To many turns and lots of uphill yuck I would never want to run this race.  At least the 10k, the 5k wouldn't be so bad.

Got a ride up to the start of the Halloween and with Julie C.  I was not registered, I have reached my limit on race that i want to pay for this year. They are all getting so pricey.  I did a little warmup with Kim and Jane and lots of potty stops.  The race started only about 3 mins late witch I was surprised because everything else with this race was super hectic, so I heard.  The first 5 miles I ran with Jess and we just chatted all the way down the steep downhill.  I purposely didn't run this as fast as I could have because last time I died after the downhill.  At about mile 3 we cought up to the 1:30 pacer and ran with them until mile 9.   It was fun to run with Allie and James.  I wish I would have just sucked it up and stayed with them.  Anyway I had a good time and ran a pretty solid time for not training that much.  But oh man I am super sore.  Cooled down to my car after.
