Working Hard

Today was a little wired because I thought I was gonna do premier stuff, but I ended up doing two 2 mile tempo at 6:45-7 min pace, which is not bad. On the first one I went 13:16 (little faster than I was supposed to) and on the second one 13: 37(right on time). Ran back home. Since I did tempo today I might not be racing tomorrow, but I am still going there.

We got there a little and didn't know we were supposed to get bibs. I just went and tried to finish the race. 

During the warmup I felt great and I was ready to kill it and I did. I got a new PR on the mile (5:13).   

Shout out to Connor Baller cuz he prounced my name correctly the first time.

15 miles at average of 6:45 pace. Me, Bill, and Sarah went to rail trail at Park City, what great place to run.

Easy 40 min run to loosen up from yesterday. Probably got 4 miles in.

Oh man! Today was one tough day. We did 1 mile warmup and 1 mile of speed changes. During the warmup I asked Bill what our workout was going to be and he said it was couple of 200s, 5*1000s and couple of more 400s at the end. Thought he was kidding, but we ended up doing 2X200, 5X1000, and 2X400s. On the 400s I had to do another one because I did not hit exactly what time I was supposed to. I did not time myself on the 200s so I don't know my spilts, but the 1000s they were: 3:29, 3:31, 3:28, 3:34, 3:34. On the 400s I went 76, 76, 76. Cooled down to 12 miles. Wasn't feeling great doing the workout, but kind of glad I ran yesterday because if hadn't probably wouldn't have to able even walk today because of fridays workout. Then went to Peer Court, thats were I volunteer, and I have ton of homework to do now.

Today we went Libety Park where we did about 10-12 strides (I wasn't counting) to loosen up more. The workout was 4 mile tempo at 6:45 pace. I ended up finishing at 25:35, which is 6:24 a mile. Felt awesome during the workout and the workout wasn't that bad either. finished up to get 10. Got 10.5 miles today. 

Ran to the fence of Red Butte Garden pass the yellow gate taking the Lagacy Bridge way. On our way back we stop at Sunnyside park to do 2 800s( not fast). I hit 2:42 and 2:39 and then back to school. Felt awesome. It sucks that for the rest of the week I have to do my runs on my own since everybody else is going to Arcadia, anyway good luck all those going there. That run gave us 8 miles

Shout out to Eleanor because she came with the distance kids after long time.

8 miles on my own today. Went to Liberty from my house and did 2 laps there and came back home. My pace was pretty good I finished the whole workout in less than an hour. Good luck to all racing tomorrow at Arcadia.

Seven miles around my neighborhood today.

10 miles at a pretty fast pace.

Easy 6 miles today.

Today me and Sarah ran from school to Cottonwood Complex and there we did 4 super long hill strides and back to the school. I did pretty good, but coming back was hard because I had to push me pace a lot to get be done before five, my pace was fast. Wasn't a bad workout. Got 12.5 to 13

Went to oval, did normal warmup of 2 mile jog and 1 more mile of speed changes and than did 3X1 mile @ 2 mile pace and 2X 800 ( I think these were were also at 2 mile pace) my splits were 5:36, 5:47 ( on this one we did not went fast enough so I had to kick the last 400), 5:49. I think the last one was slower because I had wasted all my energy at that kick on the previous one. On the 800s I went 2:52,2:52. Cooled down to 12. For some reason we did our cool down and recovery at fast pace. 

Took the Shriners way to city creek canyon and did memory grove and back to school. The snow was bad.  I don't understand what is wrong with the weather in Utah.

Shout out to Sarah cuz she is now offically commited to SUU.

I had to miss practice today because I had to attend this meeting so I did 8 miles on my own. My legs felt heavy and just wasn't feeling very well today. I am glad that the weather is back to normal. I again have to do my pre-meet workout by myself tomorrow. 

Girls are doing steeple tomorrow at BYU, good luck to them.

Today again on my own. Ran down to Granite High Track, Which is about .75 miles from my house, and did another lap there and did 2 mile of speed changes and did another lap again around the track and back home. I am running the mile and 800 ( I don't like 800s) tomorrow at Taylorsville Invite. 

Shout out to all the East girls who did steeple at BYU today cuz according to Bill's comment on Sarah's blog, they all did awesome.

Did 5 miles today at decent pace.

I am a little disappointed on my yesterday's performance because I thought I had worked hard the last 2 weeks and I thought would PR for sure, but I guess I didn't work hard enough so I am going to work even harder from now on. That probably was my last race this season, but the next time I race I am gonna kill it for sure.

Did normal 2 miles warmup and 1 more miles of speed changes as a part of the warmup. The workout was 1X2000 @ 2 mile pace, 3X500, 3X400, 3X300 @ mile pace. I hit 7:07, 1:40, 1:40, 1: 42, 77, 79, 79, 56, 52, 56.  I did not feel very good at the start of the 300s, my stomach started to ache, but I got over with it and I felt good after. I lost my focus on the 300s, I just wanted to get over with them so thats probably why my times are slow. cooled down to 12.

Normal track warmup. Did a lap around sunnyside and came back to the Asphalt hill and did 10 hill strides there. Went to the 200 start line at track and did 6 200s. I hit 33,35,35,35,34,33. Got water and did another 400@ 73. Cooled down for 6 Miles. Overall good and tough workout. My left leg isn't very happy after that workout today.

I just realized that I haven't blob logged for more than a week, from now on I will be more consistent. Today's run was awesome which was 6 miles long and easy. Good luck all the people racing at BYU this weekend.

I have to find what how put my miles in my blog, if anybody knows plz comment below.
