LOVED this workout!!! We met Steve at the track, and warmed up for 1.5 miles. Then we did a 200 fast, then recovered for 600. THEN, we did a mile at 5K pace, then recovered for 800.

Michelle and I paced ourselves on the mile, and we could pick it up on the last lap of each mile. That just felt great! Before at speed work, I would always start out fast, then fade on the last lap. So I was so happy! Then I felt great all day, even after a hard workout.

So I just loved this workout! Thanks Steve!

Met with running group today, and we did a loop of about six miles. Some of the miles I did at marathon pace.

Today I did an easy two-mile warm-up, then circuit weights for about 30 minutes, then ran 2 more miles. I was really tired the last two miles! Hopefully this will increase my endurance.

I think we averaged about 8.5 to 9 minute miles today. We ran around some hills.

Just 5 slow, easy miles--about 10 minute pace.

Michelle and I ran up Butterfield Canyon (3 miles) then turned around and ran back down. At the bottom we met Eric, Allan, Cheryl, Debbie and her son and ran up and back another 3. So we totalled 6 miles of pretty hard uphill, and 6 miles of downhill. I honestly didn't think I could run up it twice, but it actually felt better the second time (except that my hands were freezing, since I had left my soaking-wet gloves at the bottom). Michelle and Cheryl and I ran down it at about an 8:20 pace, and the first time it took us 57:55 total. The next time we were about a minute faster. It made us think that yes, we CAN do our legs of Wasatch Back up Old Snowbasin Road!
