The King of Controversy

AM - 8.25 miles. 60 min with 20 tempo. Average Pace: 7:45. Average Tempo: 6:24. Much better tempo for me today. I stayed with the group the whole time and didn't cut it short. I decided to just sit back and let the other guys lead instead of jumping out to the front early like I usually do. I took the lead right at the end with like 1 min left and gave one last good push. The tempo was a lot slower today which I think made it easier as well but that's okay. It's a recovery week and I'm not going to worry about that.

PM - 3.5 miles. 30 min easy. Nice run with the guys to Sandbergs and then we hit up Sonic after. Legs felt good.

AM - 7.25 miles. 50 min easy grass with striders. Great run but I think we maybe ran on the grass a little too long. My legs got really tired from running on there so much. It was also great to finally do striders again. I felt really smooth and strong. 

AM - 7 miles. 60 min easy. Super fun run today. We ran to Sandbergs and introduced it to some of the new guys and then we went up into Green Springs and into the desert behind Nick's house and through the tunnels onto the dirt mile and back to the school. Legs felt tired but still a great run. Very small numbers today with a lot of girls going to girls camp.

PM - 3.25 miles. 30 min easy. Met up at Skylar's again and went swimming after. This time some of the girls showed which made it more interesting. 

AM - 6.25 miles. 50 min with long hills. Average Pace: 8:51. Just ran to Hells Hole today and went on all the rolling hills down there. It was pretty difficult but we kept it fairly slow so it wasn't too bad. My legs have felt really sore and tired this week which is really weird since it is a recovery week.

AM - 10 miles. 75 min with strong finish. Average Pace: 7:53. Met at Green Springs park today and we went on an epic adventure run. We went and found Forrest Park in Middleton and then after flipping the level 2s around, we went through Neon Spider and then looped it back to the park. Super fun but we got stuck in the tunnel for a while because there was this huge tumbleweed blocking the tunnel. We couldn't even really see it and Preston ran into it. Legs felt a bit better today but still pretty sore. Strong finish wasn't anything special. It was slow but I think we all needed that. It's still been a pretty tough week even  though it has been recovery.

AM - 3.25 miles. 30 min easy. Just a quick easy run by myself this morning. Nothing really to report.
