9 miles.

2.5 miles to Summit, 8:03 AP

2 fast miles on the TM at Summit, 6:59 AP followed by:

Leg press

Quads/HS

Standard plank

Depth jumps

Box jumps

2.5 miles home, 7:55 AP then 2 miles with Iggy (who ran much slower tonight, 9:22 AP)

With the weights and plyos in the middle the whole workout lasted just under 2 hours.

I start my 4 X 10 hour shifts at work tomorrow. Hoping it goes well. It does mean that I have to get up even earlier now or run at night. Ugh . . . It will probably be a combination of them both!

6 miles, AP 7:40. Another run in the wee hours before the sun even thinks about sharing it's beams. Pickle ball figure 8 x 1.5. Really wondering how my body will handle the 4 10 hour (which really ends up being closer to 11-11.5) work shifts.

Great run for me, but icky run for Ry. :-(

First, having Friday's off rules!!!! Was able to get in my long run today (which is a scale back week). The plan was to run 7 miles by my lonesome and then pick up Ry who would be waiting with bells for the last 6! :-)

I figured I'd run hard on my own and then enjoy the company for the final 6. 

Miles 1-7, AP 7:45. Summit loop with extension. Hilly loop. Ran hard, not max, but hard. Didn't have to stop at any lights so kept the pace honest. Felt great about these miles as I was able to keep a good pace even on the uphill miles. With that said was happy to finish those 7 miles and take it easier with Ry.

Mile 8, AP 8:57. True to his word Ry was ready when I arrived but not with bells. I knew immediately when we started to run that something was off. Just shy of a mile Ry stopped and started dry heaving. Needless to say we turned around and headed home. Walked a few minutes with him to make sure he was good. After that he insisted a go and finish my run so we could leave for SLC on time.

Miles 9-13, AP 7:35. Pickle ball loop with rustic loop. I was feeling pretty good after the 3 minute walk with Ry. I decided that I would see if I could pick up the pace again and match my prior pace. I was pleased when I saw each mile click in. I was feeling strong but starting to feel the fatigue. I kept telling myself to just hang on for another mile. Then the magical feeling you get when the mile clicks in faster than you were expected that gives you a little boost would take over. Last mile was my fastest at a 7:22. No stops other than the one with Ry.

Feel super great about this run. :-)

Go Thunder Girls!!!! :-)
