Got out to go run in between study sessions today. Run was awesome in the 60+ degree weather. 

Had an emergency bathroom stop around mile 8 but for the most part run was good. Still quite sore from Saturdays race but that should be gone in the next couple of days anyways.

Back to studying.....

Legs feel a ton better today. Planned the next 4 weeks leading into the Ogden Half. Hopefully this quick program will shock and revamp the legs.

WIth the program I might bail on the SLC Half, not sure yet. 

Avg pace 6:22 min/miles

Had no real goals in mind this week til Saturday on speed work. So anyway I was browsing on Strava and saw that Riley had some course records that he took from me so I went out and rightfully got some back! North Ogden is my turf, not Mr. Cooks :}

avg pace tonight was 6:27

by the way I took my final Oral Practical @ Weber State. The light it bright my friends. 4 days left, then the real consistant training begins!

Got home and went and played some basketball for an hour.

Great weather this morning. Ran around south Ogden in between classes. Felt like garbage for majority of the run. Had a good spurt in the middle where I felt okay and was able to go sub 7 but for the most part I was way heavy. I need to quit playing basketball on thursday nights, and I will most likely feel a lot better.

Almost got the 7 min guy today. 7:04 min/miles

Retired my first pair of Skechers Gorun ride 3s today. I have been impressed by the amount of cushioning and the hold up. Steve Hooper you might want to think about it. Skechers who knew right?

Met up with fellow @OgdenCrew members Jon and Bret this morning at Lee's Market for a solid long. Bret did 10 miles because of his debut Marathon next Saturday in SLC. Kid is in shape I expect greatness from him next week.

After Bret left Jon and I started doing mile repeats every other mile. Goal was to start at 5:30 and go a little faster each time. 

splits- 5:29; 5:21; 5:15; 5:08.

Wanted to get one more in but due to time I had to cut our goal 20 miler 1.5 miles short.

But overall solid workout, my plan is to get the endurance back in my legs. I feel the speed is there but no endurance for the long races. Glad to finally run with people, I was getting bored talking to myself all the time.

P.M.

4.15 miles easy around the big block. Good solid day of running
