I coach high school swim and love it!

This week will be a mileage cut back week (45-50 plus some xtraining) with the Provo half on Saturday. I have no idea how this race will go so I'm just going to go into with the goal to work on Focusing when it gets hard. 

Yoga on my own my mom is sick.

Up/down killer hill repeats. The purpose of these are to teach the legs to shift gears from up to down. This is how UVM course is it has many hard ups followed by a down.  So this is what we do:) Met at Rebecca's early, both of us were not excited for this workout but we warmed up 5 miles and went to work did the first two on center St hill total mileage up/down was .90 did 6:38 and 6:39 pace. Then we went and did the hill opposite of this which is shorter and steeper .60 total x3 did 6:40, 6:40, 6:36 pace in these then we went back to the center st hill and this one was hard I did 6:50 pace.  at the top of the hill I was tired and had a hard time getting my legs to move. I set out to do 5 repeats and did 6 feeling a lot stronger than 2 weeks ago where I felt like this workout was a flop. 13 miles@7:49 avg pace

Met Rebecca at Vintage park and ran 3.5 up the canyon then turned and did a 2 mile HMP run to get that pace dialed in for Saturday, did 6:17, 6:23. Felt ok not fresh but doable. Then we iced in the river, it is quite chilly! 7 miles in 7:38 avg pace

Had a good first 10 then kind of died but good for my first race, detail later

A race is always open for good learning experiences, I learned I am not on top of my mental game.  Or wait I already kind of knew that:)  I knew going in this race that I am not were I was last year at this time and mentally I am drained from my past few weeks of Jade being in the hospital.  So all in all this was a good effort with a crash and burn finish, but a reminder that I need to get on top of my mental game and finish stroger in the next race.  I felt good the first part but struggled out of the canyon and just got comlacent with not doing as well as last year.  Probably started to fast but I felt good and was not paying attention to my splits just running off feel, but I kind of knew it was to fast because Rebecca was behind me the first 5 miles or so and seceretly I was hoping that some magic would happen and I would be able to finish as strong as I did last year.  Struggled with icky stomach so I didn't take any fuel in which is not good for me. Did a 2 mile warmup with my ladies and a 2 mile cool down with Angie and Janae and we ran the last half mile in with Ericka.

splits-6:09, 6:17, 6:27, music died 6:21, 6:22, 6:17, 6:27, out of the canyon 6:45, 6:45, 6:49, 7:00 ugg the hill was my doing in, 6:55, 6:50, 6:29 pace for the last .13

so not a great race but not to bad for my 1st half of the season
