4 miles with Smo, took it easy.

Smo has an injured foot that we are trying to rehab (FHL/FHB).. A little over a week ago she was at a basketball camp playing for two different teams. She ended up playing in 15 games, usually playing each game in its entirety (yeah, I typed that right: FIFTEEN)!!! Then she followed that a couple of days later running crazy hard at cross country. Her body was too broken down. She didn't want to tell me because she didn't want me to tell her that she had to take a couple of days off. Now it's going to take much longer. Ugh. I think she has learned her lesson though. She is rarely injured and she is HATING it. She has got another big basketball tournament starting tomorrow in California. Once that is done she can really focus on rehabbing that foot and running.

6.5 miles. Super happy with this run. Have a new pair of shoes that I wanted to take on a test run. They make me feel fast!!! HA!!!

2 warm up miles, then 3 miles booking it, followed by 1.5 cool down mile.

The 3 fast miles splits were: 6:58, 6:55, 6:53. I was super happy, especially considering that 2 of those miles were on dirt (which usually slows me down a bit). I was feeling AWESOME. At least as awesome as one can feel when they are trying to convince themself that they can hold that pace the last mile when they haven't run outside that fast for three consecutive miles for quite some time! On the treadmill, yes, but not outside. Now, I know for many on the blog that is no biggie, but for me it is great! 42 isn't feeling so bad! :-)

10 miles by my lonesome, AP 7:37. Another happy run for me!! Ran up to the turn around on the Virgin River Trail (where the Pilot station is) and then back home. Was hoping to hit sub 8 overall pace, was thrilled with the 7:37. Last mile 6:58.

5.5 miles: 2.5 in the morning with Smo, with some walking, her foot is not ready. She wanted to test it out before going to cross country tomorrow since she knew she was set back again secondary to her California basketball tournament. Her first couple of games her foot felt fine, but then progressively it got worse and worse and hurting pretty badly by her last game. I was not there. She was there with Ryan. She knew this was a very real possibility before she went to the tournament but she did not want to let her team down. Later in the afternoon we went to the gym so she could get her foot in the pool. It helps her significantly. I ran 3 hard on the treadmill, AP 6:58 and 30 minutes strength training while she did aqua jogging in the pool.

5 miles, 7:12 pace. Banded Hills Sunrise Loop. Anytime I Putin these shoes I feel like should be running fast. They feel kind of like racing flats but with a little more support. So I obey my inclination and push. Feels good!!! :-)

16 TM miles, 7:39 pace. In a nutshell this is what happened:  Scene: At work. Shelbey: "Teena, if you agree to do a long run tonight at the gym with me (Shelbey was going to Bear Lake for the weekend) then I will call your last two patients and see if they can come in early and I will stay and help you see them." Me: "DONE!!!!" And so it went! I wanted to see if my Sauconys would do well on a long run. This was a perfect opportunity as I took another pair of shoes with me just in case. They did splendid. I could tell that I need to get some more long runs in them though before a marathon since my hips began tightening up. Long run done! Wahoo!!!!

5 easy miles with Iggy up to Ry's Rock. Then Sophia wanted me to help her with a workout. She's still recovering from a foot injury and is not going to run for a couple more days. She took Friday as a rest day, had a fairly easy workout yesterday and so wanted someone to hold her accountable to pushing hard! That girl! Went to the gym. We biked hills (30 minutes) L6-13 keeping the RPMs above 80 (which was killer at L13). We were sweating bullets. Then we hit the pool. I held onto her tether and she did 10 x 90 seconds intervals with 60 seconds easy between. I could tell she was pushing it since after she was done her legs were wobbly! Ha!! That girl is something else.

We made it to Cali. The humidity in Oceanside pretty much kicked my butt today.

17 miles, AP 8:09 on the bike trail. Slept in so was already in the 80s with humidity at 64%. Should have gotten up early but was exhausted from all the sun and boogie boarding yesterday. Didn't bring nearly enough fluids. At mile 14 I was completely parched. I saw a car parked on a side road watching some paragliders. I swallowed my pride Nd asked them if by chance they had any spare water. They were SO nice, they actually had a cooler in their backseat and they gave me a whole bottle. Not sure is water has ever tasted that good to me. HA HA! Survived. :-)
