Monroe your boat run this morning. Welcomed a couple new runners this morning to our group which was awesome. Legs were a little tired from Saturdays tempo but for the most part feeling pretty darn good.

I last week of hard training and will begin the small taper next week. Getting pretty excited and nervous,

2.50 mile warm. One mile with Riley til Jon and I split to go do our tempo. Riley did a 4-3-2-1 breakdown

Tempo for me ended at mile 3, was supposed to be 5. But I got us lost and really wasnt feeling it today.

avg splits were about 5:30 avg

Jogged until I caught Jon, then did 5X400 at 71 avg.

Cooled back to Smiths with Riley and Jon.

Sluggish tired morning on the canal rd heading North from Rainbow gardens with Jon, Riley, and Jon Moss.

It was a great morning weather wise, took a bit to get going but I just keep thinking 2 more days and the rest begins!

5 miles easy. Was a slacker and slept in and went golfing with Riley. Which by the way I won. So Riley can be beat in something! 😉 

Also my wife and I made a decision. To build so we picked out a house plan and a lot too. So that is exciting, so with all the busyness I am glad to have been able to sneak a run in.

Met up with Jon in North Ogden at  Lee's Market. We headed south on Washington Blvd then made our way up to mountain road and headed north towards tempo road. Started a 3 mile pickup with splits of 5:21; 5:24; 5:00. Overall time 15:49 Felt really good to open things up a bit. Made our way back to the cars and called it. Taper I guess has begun, planning on one small workout next week. 

Also I will be headed to STG Wednesday and night and looking to do a 5-6 mile run Thursday morning. If anyone is down that way on Thursday let me know. I would love a running partner.
