Running From Finals

New record for distance. I ran up to Hogle zoo, through the foothill neighborhoods, up parleys towards park city, back down foothill, over to sugar house, and then back up to the dorm. It was a solid 1000ish feet in elevation change and I did it at 7:30s. Towards the end I was running up hill and saw a dude coming towards me on a skateboard, or so I thought. It turned out he was just standing sideways and I was tired enough and my vision was messed up enough that I could not figure out what was going on hahaha. I wanted to finish out the last 6 miles and get in a solid 20 but my phone died as I was coming in, so I couln't count the miles.

Good 6 at 6 am! It was too cold for running and my face was ready to shatter. Definitely wrecked after yesterday

Today was freaking fantastic. Me and Ethan got up at 6 and caught the train to trolly. From there we ran to liberty park in 27 degree weather. At liberty we did a really solid workout. We ran intervals. It went 4 minutes at 6 minute pace, 2 minutes at 7 pace, 6 minutes at 6 pace, 3 minutes at 7 pace, 8 minutes at 6 pace, 4 minutes at 7 pace, and then we finished with 4 minutes at 6 pace. It freaking hurt after monday. My legs were cramping so hard and it was freezing out. Still, it felt so so good to run like that. We put in a quick 6 miles at an average of 6:30 pace between the whole workout, and finished it off with another mile to get us to eight. Great way to finish before the break. Now Im looking forward to getting home and eating some turkey.

So good to be home. I did a loop on the river trail. I averaged 7s for the whole run. It's so nice to be out of the elevation and in the warmth. I needed it. Also, I'm dead from monday and wednesday. Hopefully, Ill be feeling better by monday for the next set of workouts. Well see. 

Long day. Solid pace. 7s all around. Last Run before I head back to Salt Lake where the snow is waiting.
