I ran out  to Snow Canyon and up West Canyon. It was pretty dark coming out and heading home, but I had a good run. 2 Nights in a row of 12 milers and I am feeling pretty fit.

SCPW 7.63mi. I'm feeling really good right now. Legs strong, heart and lungs right on track. I wish the SGM was this week. I have to keep this fitness level without any injury.

This afternoon I ran over to the gym and put in 3 progressively faster miles/ Each mile started at 6:00 pace. Then every tenth of a mile I increased the speed one level, which is about 3-4 sec. per mile ave. By the last tenth I was running 5:26 pace. On the last mile I started at 5:57 and just kept increasing the pace down to 5:00. I ran a cool down mile in between each of those miles. The cool down was at 6:27 pace.

By the way, I went to bed at about 8:30 last night. I am going to have to do that a lot more often.

I ran at the gym today. I wanted to stay off of the SGM downhill and rest my knees. My splits were:

7:00

6:30

6:00

5:40

5:30

5:15 finishing at 4:50 pace.

I'm feeling encouraged about not losing any speed through all of the long miles this year.

Ran this morning on the treadmill. This afternoon I went back and put in another 7. I have a touch of pain in my right heal. I'm hoping that staying off of the hard roads and doing ice everyday will ease it back into health.

I ran SCPW easy out and then chased a guy back. I caught him with about a mile to go. Then I put in a confidence building 5:20 for my last mile. I'm feeling better about my readiness level for next weeks SGM. STAY HEALTHY!!!
