| Met with the running group, and ran some speed work. All in all it was a tough run! We did about 3 miles to warm up, and about 1.5 to cool down, and all the miles in between were fast with recoveries. | | Comments(1) |

| Tried to warm up before the Riverton 10K, but didn't get much time after wrapping up all the registration stuff! Tried to do an 8-minute first mile, then progressively faster. However, I didn't get much faster! I just didn't have a lot of energy, I haven't been sleeping well, who knows why? But my time was 48:05, so my average was 7:50 and it is a tough course--very hilly. Last year I was in the 50 minute range, so that is improvement! | | Add Comment |

| We did the Riverton 10K route and met at my house to start--there were about 16 of us, and it was very fun! Michelle and Julie and I did a progressive tempo. After a warm-up of three miles we did 2 miles at 8:30 then 2 miles at 8:00 (at least we tried! some were faster and some were slower by a little bit). Then we cooled down the last couple of miles. We plan to increase our miles that we do at 8-minute pace, since that is our goal pace for the marathon. However, I have my reservations that I can do that pace for the entire marathon! | | Add Comment |

| Speed work at the track. Warm-up of 2 miles then 2 laps of speed changes. 6 800's with a 400 recovery in between. We did the first 2 at marathon pace, then half marathon pace, then we got all mixed up with our arithmetic and were trying to do 7:40, 7:30, 7:20, but ended up doing 7:20, 7:20 (I think!) then 7:00. Then we did 3 laps of fast 100's, and cooled down for one lap. I loved it--it's great to be at the track again! | | Add Comment |

| Today we started through the Avenues and ran up City Creek a little, then down to Memory Grove and then back up through the Avenues. I really pushed it on the uphills, and got my heart rate up to 190! I also really wanted to throw up when we were done with the last hill. I think I need to push myself like that a little more, so it will be easier to push myself harder in races. | | Add Comment |

Progressive tempo run at Gardner Village trail. 2 miles warm-up (averaged 9 minute miles), then 2 miles at marathon pace plus 30 seconds (8.5 minute miles) then 4 miles at marathon pace (tried for 8 minute miles, but did a couple at about 8:06, one at 7:50, and one at 8:16, so they probably averaged to about 8 minute pace), then one more at 8.5, then one at almost 9 to cool down.
Felt like a good run, although I still have reservations about trying to run that fast for the whole marathon. I don't know if I will be at that point yet! | | Add Comment |

Loved the 10K! My splits were: 6.37, 6.33, 7.11, 7.08, 7.02 and 7.24 for the last mile--that little bit of uphill was hard! But I felt great, and it was 4.5 minutes faster than the Riverton 10K I did July 4th! Love the downhill! | | Add Comment |

Speed work at the track. I did 10 400's with a 400 recovery in between. I started them out in the 8 minute pace range, and ended at 6.30 (the last 4 were about 6.30 minute pace).
Ran about 2 miles with Drew later. | | Add Comment |

Ran 10.7 miles with the running group, as a progressive tempo run--20 minutes at a moderate pace, then 20 of a little harder, then 20 at goal pace (8 minute miles). Then we repeated that with 10 minute segments. Very fun!
When I got home, I ran 1.5 miles with Drew, about 11 minute average. | | Add Comment |
