AM - 5.25 miles. 40 mi with 4, 3, 2, 1 min Fartleks. We ran up at the State Course today. It was fun to run on it but the fartleks didn't make me feel very good. My back tightened up like crazy on these which made them feel a lot harder than they should have been.
PM - 6.5 miles. 50 min. Herriman Invite. Race did not go how I would have liked it too. I planned on going with Nick but I was already tired after the first 800 meters because we were going up hill and I slowed down a lot. I picked it up once we got going downhill and I was able to pass a few people which was not easy because the course is so small. I got up the Motha Cussa strong but it totally wore me out and I slowed down. Luckily everyone else slowed down too so I didn't get passed by very many people but I wished I had kept a good pace because I could have passed a ton of people. Definitely not a good race for me but our team ended up taking 2nd behind American Fork which was a bit suprising but it showed that we have a really strong team even if some of us have off days.
