I coach high school swim and love it!

I woke up not feeling well this morning.  Don't know if I am getting something or what.  I hope not.

Running this week should consist of something in the ball park of 65, would really like to continue the grass running if I can get to the park.  Do weights or yoga 2 times.  Racing the Provo 10 miler on saturday, this should be fun stuff.

Met Michelle and MacK in SF we did our regular rb loop with the wind just a blowen.  And it was cold, what month is this?  Throat a little sore and not feeling the best but didn't feel to bad on the run.

Met Sasha at his house we ran to meet Jeff on the trail.   We did the regular out to the lake and back with alittle bit of Matt to spice it up in the middle.  Matt got a new Forerunner watch, tiny little thing.  Then we finished up with laps around Sasha's block so Sarah could go out on the trail.  Felt good, legs a little tired towards the end.  Mostly just an easy run.

Today Michelle, MacK, Alli, and myself meet at  the 10 mile mark of the Hobblecreek course.  We did a 3 mile warmup and then went right into a 4 mile tempo 2 miles uphill and 2 down.  My legs did not want to run fast today, felt very dead legged.  But tried my hardest anyway, which was alittle discouraging because I could not keep up with anyone on the way up.

1-7:18

2-7:57 remember this is uphill

3-6:59

4-6:35

28:51 for the tempo

Got up and ran by myself.  Went and opened my husband job and then got on the river path.   Started really easy and worked into an ok pace.  Felt allright, not the best but better than I though I would after yesterdays workout.  Still pretty cool in the morinings.

Pretty good race for me, I wish now looking back at my split I would have been faster/mentally stronger at the end but I am happy.  A pr for me so can't be to disapointed.

Warmed up with Michelle and James 2 miles, got to the start at it was about to start and we still had to get rid of our warmups.  Started the race and could really only see about 20 people up ahead of me, not bad.  The first 3.2 are a really fast downhill and then it flatens out on the river trail and is a very gental downhill.

1-6:18

2-6:32

3-6:26 feeling really good with this

4-6:36 flattens out here and this usually kills me but I still felt good

5-6:41

6-6:35 (39:08 faster than the tempo I did a couple of weeks ago)  feeling pretty good still

7-6:38

8-6:55  I guess this is where I started to struggle or lose focus because I wasn't that tired

9-6:57 now I am starting to get tired just want to keep the pace under 7's

10-6:55 (1:06:33)

Course measure .1 long for me did that in 31 sec.  See why looking back I should have pushed alittle more, I really think I could have but stayed under 7's so happy about that and I can tell the training is paying off. 

Cooled down with amazing Michelle (1st place overall womens) and easy 5.  We ran back to run her hubby in and yelled at him like no tomorrow to pick it up and he responded well we got him in under 1:20.
