Met at Peggy's house, and ran 9 miles with Cheryl, Peggy, Michelle and Julie. Easy pace, with a couple of quicker miles in the middle--three at about 8:30.

Got home and ran one mile with Drew.

Speed work and tempo in one day! I met Peggy and we started running at 5 a.m. Everyone else came at 5:30 and 6:00, and we started the speedwork at Riverton High. We did a 1200, 800 and 400 (with 400 recoveries) then a 2 mile tempo run on the streets. Then we went back to the track and did 2 400's, 2 200's, and some speed changes. Very fun! I love the short distance sprints, they just feel good!

Just tried to do 10 at a normal long-run pace, but again I was a little slower with my first two miles being REALLY slow, and then I tried to pick it up more at the end.

We met at the soccer fields and did our 3 5K's. Woo hoo! Michelle and I treated the run as a longer tempo, so we tried to do the 5K's at marathon pace. Our first was a warm-up, and the average was about 8:25. The next two were right on a 8 minute pace--7.59, to be exact. They felt good! Then I ran a mile cool-down, and another 2 with Drew when I got home.

Ran with Julie today--much better than running by myself on Fridays! We did 7.1 miles at a 9:18 average. It felt pretty good!

Oops! We meant to do 28, but Michelle and my running math is terrible! But, Jody came with us and wanted to get in 20, so it was perfect for us! And it was really fun to run with Jody. Jody and I got in one extra when Officer Brown stopped us and had Michelle fill out a statement report about the wild dogs who almost attacked her on Friday.....

We had an 8:52 average according to my Garmin, so I was very happy! Now if I can just find somewhere to run at Lake Powell the next little bit I'll be even happier!
