Solid workout in the heat. Repeats felt a little hard today. Definitely feeling a little fatigue from last Saturday's relay. But good to have this workout under my belt.

2 mile felt good, but also a little hard to to the fatigue on the legs.

Doubled up before work today. 

Ran with Jon 9 miles from my house. Weather was perfect, nice and cool.

Then a couple hours later  I took my son for 1.25 miles on his run then added on from there.

Good start to the day!!

Easy miles on the TM. 

Avg pace was 7:15 min/miles. Watched the movie WARRIOR while running, better movie than I thought it would be. Pretty intense.

Long run/ 3-2-1-1200-800-400 workout

 Met up with Ken and Riley at Rainbow Gardens then carpooled up to Monte Cristo to run some of the New Huntsville Marathon course. To be honest that Marathon will be the most beautiful marathon in the state and if not the fastest. Whole course is downhill, about 5 miles of it is on the Ogden Marathon course, but the nice thing is that the downhill isn't to extreme.

Great run today though. Ken and Riley worked me over like a bad habit. I knew that we were going to be fast today when our first mile was around 6:10 min/mile, after the 3 mile tempo we were cooling down at 5:55 pace, so we were all committed to hit under 6 min/pace for the first 20 miles. I love the 3-2-1 workout feels like it breaks the long run up a lot.

splits for the repeats

3 mile 5:31; 5:29; 5:31

2 mile 5:02; 5:10

1 mile 5:10

1200- 3:45, 5 min pace

After the 1200 legs weren't going to go much faster I felt worked over

800- 2:40, 5:20 pace

400- 72

cooled for 3.50 miles,

Solid workout for myself, first time in a workout that I hit 20 miles under 2 hours.

Avg pace came out to be 5:57 min/miles.
