I met the BBK's at Bingham. I warmed up for 3.5 miles. Then we did a faster 2 mile run. I tried to keep that at marathon pace (8 mm). Then we headed to the track for 6 Yasso 800's. My times were:
1. 3:13 (I knew this was way too fast when Peggy and Melanie were right in front of me.)
2. 3:20
3. 3:18
4. 3:19
5. 3:29 (Would have been faster, but I had to answer a phone call from my daughter during the last 100 meters. It was her first day driving herself to school.)
6. 3:37 (I didn't have Mike there to push me on this last one. I was done. I shouldn't have run that first one so fast either.)
I went to bed at 9:30 last night. I finally got 7 hours of much needed sleep. I felt so much better today.
I recovered by running slowly for the same amount of time after each 800. |

| I met the BBK's at South Jordan Park at 5:00 a.m. for our 4 x 5k's workout. The first 3 miles were at an easy pace. Miles 4-6 were 7:53, 7:38 and 7:05 with a short recovery after. The third one I really wanted to push it. I ran with Mike and we tried to not get too far behind Peggy, Melanie and Scott. They make it look so easy. I don't think they were even breathing hard. I doubt I could have run a real 5k much faster. Those miles were 7:16, 7:01 and 6:54. I hit the 3 mile mark in 21:12. The last 3 miles I ran with Cheris, Michelle M. Nancy R., Melanie and Dean. We wanted 1 fast mile and 2 cool down miles. Those times were 7:43, 8:37 and 8:40. Very fun workout. The BBK's are the best. |

| I met the BBK's at the trail on 7800 S. The plan was 1 warm up mile, 5 miles at tempo pace, a recovery mile, 5 miles at tempo and 1 easy cool down mile. My mile splits were 9:53, 7:51, 7:46, 7:29, 7:46, 7:19, 9:47, 7:27, 7:37, 7:37, 8:07, 7:38 and 9:07. We went out 6.5 miles and came back. We had a strong headwind on the way back. I'm mad at myself for slowing down to a 8:07 during the last tempo run. It was totally a mental thing. Average pace 8:07. |

I picked up Cheris and we drove to Michelle M.'s house. Cheris discovered that it was exactly 2 miles from Michelle's house to the start of the Riverton 10k route. About a 1/4 mile before 14400 where we turn around, we came upon some some cows in the road. One looked like an angry bull. We decided it wasn't worth trying to get passed them. We turned around and added some milage on at the park. It was a nice run. My legs were a little tired. Average pace 9:04.
P.M. I ran 3 miles with my daughter who is running XC. She has improved so much. She used to say she was a sprinter and would never run long distance. I think she is really starting to like it. It makes me happy. My 10 year also joined us on his rip stick. |

| Met the BBK's at the Riverfront parking lot. We warmed up for 3 miles. Then we headed over to the hill. We ran up and down at a fast pace. I took my first bathroom break. Then we went to the trail. We went 10 minutes kind of hard then 5 minutes really hard. We turned around and did it again. On the way back my stomach was really hurting. I couldn't keep up with the others. I made one more bathroom stop, then cooled down until I hit 10 miles. My splits were 10:05, 9:11, 9:37, 8:29, 8:07, 7:49, 7:51, 7:33, 8:08, and 9:14. Average pace 8:37. |

| I drove Taylor's car to the school and dropped it off for her. From there I ran an easy 8 miles ending at home. I'm ready for this week to be over so I can start tapering. Average pace 9:20. |

Since we will be running lots of hills Saturday, a few of us decided it would be a good idea to run a flatter course today. We met at 5:00 at Cheris' house. We ran 1.8 miles and came back and picked up Michelle N. We ran a comfortable pace til about mile 7, then we ran a few tempo miles. My fastest mile was 7:18. Average pace overall 8:30. |

| I met Michelle N., Angela, Jody, Cheris, Michelle M., Melanie and her sister Annette at Dimple Dell at 5:00 a.m. We ran on 10th east over to 12300 S. and then made our way up to Wasatch Blvd. We went out just under 11 miles and came back the same way. I got some extra milage running to the bathroom at mile 17 by the church. It was a nice run. The weather was perfect. This was a great simulator run for St. George. The last 2 miles were slighty uphill and they were tough. We were able to keep the pace just over 8mm for the last 5 miles. I was exhausted for the rest of the day. I'm so ready to taper. Average pace 8:44. |

I've wanted to do the Boston simulator run on the treadmill for a while. I was inspired by Teena. I rented 17 again and turned the fan on. It was a good run. It didn't seem as hard as it did before Boston. I'm hoping that's good news. |

| I met the BBK's at Bingham. We warmed up for 3.1 miles. Then we headed to the track. We ran one more easy mile with a few speed changes on the last 2 laps. Then it was time for 8 x 800's. My splits were 3:28, 3:26, 3:25, 3:26, 3:28, 3:26, 3:25, and 3:25. I recovered slowly for 500 meters between each set. I ran the first 6 with Nancy R. and the last 2 by myself. These were tough but I think I could've done a few more if I had too. |

| I really wanted to get 8 marathon paced miles in, so I talked Jerry into running with me this morning. We met Cheris, Michelle M., Jody, Nancy R. and Alan at Cheris' house at 5:30. We ran 2 warm up miles down to the trail. Jerry and I took off and ran the next 4 miles just above an 8 minute pace. There was a strong South wind. The others weren't far behind. We turned around and ran mostly together on the way back. Jerry talked Jody's ear off about baseball. I think he really enjoyed the run. Hopefully that means he will run with us more often. We cooled down the last 2 miles. It was a great run. I felt really good. My splits were 9:11, 9:08, 8:05, 8:07, 8:06, 8:17(This mile was slower because we were on 14400 and I moved over for a few cars to pass.), 7:49, 7:49, 7:27, 7:47, 8:37 and 9:11. |

Ran by myself. I tried to get a feel for marathon pace a few times. I had a hard time finding that pace. Average 8:33.

| Met the BBK's at South Jordan park. I ran the first 3 warm up miles with Walter in 9:29, 8:53 and 8:40. Then I ran the 2nd 3 miles in 8:37, 7:48 and 7:39 with a .30 mile recovery. Then for the final 3 miles I ran with Dean and Kevin. Those splits were 8:07, 7:35 and 7:44. Then I cooled down for another .4 miles. This will be my last speed workout until the race. |
