9.1 miles 

5K with Sophers in 27:19/AP 8:49 (which is a new PR for her). Sizzler's Loop. She is so cute ... she takes it relatively easy the first two miles and then kills the last 1.1 mile. Granted, today we stopped at the 2 mile mark so that she could use the restroom in the gas station on the corner (so she was rested a bit) but she still owned it big time! Her (our) splits were: 9:39, 9:36, 7:19!!!! 

1 mile with Oliver, AP 9:27

5 miles by my lonesome, AP 8:34

Swim: 800 meters swim, 18:36

 

Happy Monday, All! :)

Hill work:

10 miles (1 easy, 6 @ 8:00 on 2% incline, 1 easy, 1 @ 8:00 on 3% incline, 1 easy)

I counted the hills as marathon pace because they absolutely did not feel like easy miles.

3 hour mountain bike ride with Ry on the Mid-Mountain Trail by Deer Valley. It was only supposed to be a 2 hour ride but we missed a turn. :)

6.05 running miles after we got back to the condo and I had two big bowls of cereal. I was starving after the mountain biking. I have no idea how I am going to do the XTERRA because the mid-mountain trail is not nearly as strenuous and yet my legs felt like lead when I was running. It is quite funny because when I originally got talked into doing the XTERRA my goal was to beat the two guys who talked me into this race. It wasn't long after that when I changed my goal from beating them to finishing in the top 50% of females. Then after beginning the training and riding the XTERRA long course I changed my goal to not being dead last. Now my only goal is to complete it. Plus ... I am pretty sure that the last person gets the biggest cheers! (Probably from all the XTERRA personnel who are relieved that they can now go home. Regardless ... they are screaming, clapping and giving you high fives, right?! :) 

LOVING spending time with Ry in beautiful Park City! :)

Very happy with this race. :)

Condo alarm did not go off. Woke up on my own a little past six o'clock and said, "Holy Crap! It's a little past six o'clock!" Threw on some running clothes and arrived just in time to find Smooth before she was off!!! I also was lucky enough to see a bunch of others (Maynard, Rob, Kelli, Rachel, Karen, Bill) ... very cool. :)

Next thing I knew I was running the Half. :)

To keep it simple the plan was to really try and run my dream pace for SGM (which meant I really wanted to come in under 1:40 but would have been happy with anything under a 1:43). I ran hard. Not to the point that I ever felt sick but hard. It was perfect and I felt great. Ideally with SGM's net downhill I will be able to hold this for 26.2. That may be too lofty of a goal ... but who cares ... I am going to try. :)

Unlike Kelli I was REALLY hoping that the overall three would not have been included in the AG awards because I really like shiny things and the only time I get them is when they take the overall three out.  But alas, it was not to be.

Another one of the GREAT things about running the half is being able to see everyone finish the full! It was awesome seeing Kelli, Fly, Smooth and her girls (RAD and Karen)!

Finished the day with golf at Wasatch Mountain and dinner at Tarahumara (had to eat there ... Born to Run ... it was EXCELLENT)! :)

Good times!!! :) :) :)
