I coach high school swim and love it!

Met Janae for our tempo stuff that I missed on Saturday.  We meet Kneaders and ran up to the mouth of Provo canyon, it was rain/snow and it was getting slick so we decided to do everything on Unv. ave.  so warm up was 1.5 miles then we did a 2 mile (6:16, 6:25), went back 1.5 miles and turned and did 1.5 mile (6:21, 3:16) went back 1.5 miles to the top of center st. and ran 1 mile, this ended up being a sucky mile for me but I finished it stronger than I started it (6:26).  I was a good workout in crappy weather. total of 10 miles/7:48 avg

Met Janae for her happy birthday run. All she wanted was to run and eat apple fritters so I made her some and we ran an easy 8 miles at an 8:13 avg pace.  Foot is so so I taped it and that seems to help, or at least that's what I'm telling myself. If it's not feeling better by Monday  I might be making a trip to Dr Brady

Hiit 4x through felt good on this cause my legs are not super tired from running

Last night my foot was really sore from getting worked over by Dr. Brady and I really thought I would have to not race today.  When I woke up it felt better so I went down and met Ericka and Janae for a warm-up, Heather joined after a bit.  It felt ok so I decided to do the race.  We did a 2.2 mile warmup on some of the course, which consisted of running down and up various paths that run along the Provo river.  So down the path and back up then down and finishing with the last mile going up the path, and my legs could feel the slight up hill.  My legs where very tired and jelloy the last mile but I pushed through it and finish strong.   My Garmin measured the course short but the RD swore up and down that they measured it 3 times and it was accurate.  Maybe the cloud cover and trees messed up the satilite and in that case this is a PR for me and it is a net flat course.  My last years 5k pr was on an extremly aided course so this makes me happy.  After the race we did a 5.3 mile cool down with Derik Moodey the 5k mens winner.  We all did super duper in the race Janae winning with just over 18 mins, me 2nd, Ericka 3rd with just over 21 and Heather was 5th.  I won a 25$ gift card to Run Utah.  

I will put the distance in as 3 because I'm not convinced it was a true 5k. This still gives me a flat 5k PR
