3x3 mile repeats today. They were tough. My legs were feeling sore and flat, and the first repeat, I just could not get going at all. There was a bit of a headwind, and my  first 3 ended up with a time of 18:08, which was dissapointing. The second one had a nice headwind, until I turned around, after that I started feeling a lot better, and was finally able to get down to below marathon pace, and that repeate was 17:49, I think haha. The next one had some hills and stuff, but I was warmed up and a little more confident, so I was able to run 17:32, which still wasn't great, but it was still good to finish, work through the pain and some not ideal circumstances. I'm just glad that I was mentally able to push through and not give up on the run or the workout.

Only was able to run 6 today. I was planning on running after work, but some car troubles and a torrential downpour put an end to that.

Good workout this morning, 6x800m repeats, I did them with a kid I met last week named Bryce. It was a good push, and felt good to go fast. the target pace was 2.27-2.34, and the splits were as follows:

2.31, 2.26, 2.30, 2.31, 2.30, 2.25

I loved going fast and pushing my speed a little bit, I was also able to get some good mileage in to hopefully make up for a couple of lower mileage runs this week

So I cheered on Anna this morning at the SUU invitational. She ran well, and hung on to her varsity spot, so I'm proud of her for that! I then went on a long run from Parawon to Cedar city, and there was a headwind the entire way... it also felt uphill most of the way, but lets just say it was exhausting! Glad I got it done though, just gotta keep working through the pain and difficulty
