Nice tired Monday run. Legs felt okay this morning, thought I was going to be alot worse. Hopefully they are coming around and will get some bounce back in them. Mornings are getting darker though. Looking like head lamps in the next couple weeks.

PM

Fun group this morning. Had to newbies today, welcomed Addison and Brayden today. Still havent initiated them yet but that will come shortly, didnt want to scare them off after their first run with us.

Uintah Loop was the route, another warm morning, but I feel like I am finally getting used to the morning heat. Also legs finally feel normal, its only taken 2 weeks since DesNews.

Had a solid group of guys this morning for a workout. Riley, Ken, Jason, Jared, Dave, Henry, and myself. Think this is the biggest group we've had for a  Wednesday workout.

Ken, Riley, and I  did 6X3K with 1K active recovery, while the others did some tempo simulation.

Splits for my 3K were- 9:55; 9:47; 10:16; 9:57; 10:32; 10:51

I did this workout back in March and here are the results for that day.

Splits for my 3K were- 10:17; 10:19; 10:18; 10:25; 10:35; 10:23

On the last rep today my legs were done and it really felt like the last mile of a marathon. So I feel that this great to experience this in training so I can mentally fight through it on race day if I have the same sensations.

Total mileage- 18.2 miles

Hit the trails up above my house. Saw 2 snakes, easily 50+ lizards, and too many grasshoppers to count. 

 

Legs were destroyed which meant a lot of walking which I'm okay with for a recovery day.
