Today I met Michelle in the Spansh Fork River Bottoms and she gave me my first real experience with speed work!!!!!!!!!  HOLY &*%*$(#)@)@@!(**!!!!  And what ever other word you can think of.  I am not going to post the split's because I am at work and don't have my watch to see. I know that we were under 2:59 each one that we ran.   So you will have to read her blog to see the times.  I know that the first one was WAY to fast, but I  was just following her lead and trying to stay with her.  When we finished the first one she said "that was stupid"!!!  It was dark so I couldn't see how fast we were running.  But I knew that it felt really fast.  I would have to say that I did learn a lot and look forward to learing more from her and the rest of the people on this blog.  I feel like a gained a lot of confidence today...  I don't think that I will do speed work every week, more like every other week.

Went to bed late last night, so it was painful getting out of bed @ 4:45!!! I had to be to work early this morning so it meant running earlier. I left my house and went down to Woodland Hills Dr and Run up to the mail boxes. I needed to run slow today so I knew the only way that would happen is if I ran hills. From the mail boxes I ran across the top to Elk Ridge Dr, turned around and ran down Loafer Canyon Rd and then home. Legs felt really heavy today. I think that I am still feeling the Tuesday work out!! Left calf has been sore, so I wore my compression sock on that leg this morning and it felt better. No real pain to even speak of. 7:37 Pace today.. I am planning on running 9-10 miles in the mountains today with a buddy! Should be HOT!!!!

 

Well the 10 miles above Provo was very, very HOT!  We started at Indian Peak Trai Head and ran across the top to Bridal Veil and then down the Asphalt trail and back to the trucks. Dan and I are contractors and so we always have to pack our cell phones on our runs so that we can work and run at the same time.  The first 3 miles took forever because Dan was on the phone quite a bit.  After that we got into a good pace the rest of the way.  I am looking forward to a nice cool run on Saturday.
