Check out my Mixtape

am: Didn't wake up to run this morning with Ridgline because I was so darn tired, plus I had to go bale hay before it got hot outside, so I ended not getting to run until it got hot. I warmed up for a mile, then started doing 400 meter intervals towards hollow road. My legs felt really heavy and it was hard to stay in the high 4's and low 5's range. Went 3 miles out and then turned back and did the same thing back home. Might do a couple more miles tonight.

pm: 2 easy miles around nibley, Legs felt pretty tired.

Met at MC to run the deer fence from Blacksmith Fork Canyon all the way over to Millville and then have breakfast made by the coaches. Took off with Hayden and the start was really rough because the wind was crazy. Just like i remember it. Good ol' MC. The first 2 miles were slow because of the strong headwind. When we got on the deer fence trail that wrapped around the mountain, it was a relief to not have any wind. We were haulin up and down the hills, and with about the last 2 miles dippin in the mid 5 minute pace. Got to the park with 5.5 so I did another mile and a half on the grass before I ate. Once I finished eating I ran a half mile to meet Hayden down the road so I could get a ride back to MC. Today was sickkk.

I decided with the Freedom Run being this coming Monday, that I would go up and run the course. Cam and Hayden came along. We started about a mile before the starting line. I was pretty sore and tired. Just tried visualizing what the race would be like. The downhill on the course is awesome and I'm looking forward to a big p.r.. Average pace was 6:39. Stretched and rolled out after.

Ran into Millville for one of the first time ever. Not really sure why I have never really ran to Millville, but I'm going to start doing it more. I wanted to find Cemetery hill so I could do some repeats on it, but I couldn't find it and I didn't want to run over 5 miles so I just found some inclines and pushed those. My run also sort of turned into a progression run. Just felt really fresh in my legs. Stretched and rolled out after.

Pre race around Nibley because I'm tapering for the Freedom Run 15K. Ipod died a mile into my run so it got kinda boring. Felt a fatigued but I should be fine for monday.

Tapering for the Freedom Run. 1 mile warmup with 1 mile at race pace plus 30 seconds. Then cooled down for a mile followed by strides and rolling out. Took an ice bath later which felt awesome. Ready to race!
