AM - 7 miles. Old Man Hills - 800, 400, 200 and 2x(400, 200). Tough but good workout. I tried to stay relaxed on these because it seems like I always tighten up on these. It worked pretty well and this was probably one of my better Old Man Hill days.
PM - 4 miles. 30 min easy. I came up to Salt Lake for the weekend so I ran up here around 5. I felt pretty good but nearly as fresh as yesterday.
Controversial Topic of The Day - Who is the better American Runner, Steve Prefontaine or Galen Rupp (or who would win if they raced each other)? I think Galen Rupp is a much better runner. He has great form and a lot better than how they portray Prefontaine's form in the movies. Rupp is also a much smarter racer. He usually lets someone else lead for most of the race and then outkick them. Pre was a front runner and though it worked most of the time, he failed to medal in his only Olympic appearnace. Rupp would just have to sit on Pre for most of the race and then outkick him.
