3 easy miles in the morning.

8 miles in the afternoon. Just over 3 mile warm up with the boys and then started into a 20 minute tempo run. Really wanted to push the pace with the boys today. Ran 3 miles in 16 minutes and then we got into some slight up hill. Finished with almost 3.8 miles for the run. Cooled down to get mileage. Very happy with how the boys ran today.

Big boy run this morning. Really the last big tempo run before the marathon. I really wanted it to be the best out of all of them. 3 mile warm up and then jumped into the 8 mile tempo run. Here are the splits: 5:41, 5:43, 5:27, 5:29, 5:31, 5:25, 5:33, 5:33. 5:33/mile overall. Very happy with this workout. Got a little gnarly on mile 4 when we had to stop due to a skunk on the trail with its tail sticking straight up. It is a miracle none of us have been sprayed yet. Hopefully it doesn't happen anytime soon. Very encouraged with this workout.

3 more miles with the team this morning before school started.

Haven't slept well the last couple nights and didn't feel well this morning.

Team ran at Nebo Invite this afternoon. They were still tired from the run in Brian Head on Wednesday but that was by design. Still very happy with the way they ran. Just need to stay healthy over the next couple weeks.

Got home around 12:30am last night so I slept in. Katey went and ran the Swiss Days 5k so I went after she got back. The temps were amazing today. I just wanted to get a good solid run in today but nothing crazy. Ran around Ivins, along the Snow Canyon Parkway, back down Sunset, watched the parade, ran into Santa Clara, saw Steve in his creeper truck, and then called it a day. 15 total miles at 7:02/mile overall.

Got a massage from April today which helped out a ton.
