FARTLEK: 16 X 1-MINUTE ON/OFF

Ken and I met at Smith's, did a bit longer of a warm-up and then did a 31 minute fartlek at the Nature Park Loop in South Ogden. The loop is on a hill, so half of the reps were downhill and half uphill; it was good to get some variation.

I ended up averaging 4:40/mile for the 16 one-minute pickups. It varied from 4:14 to 5:04 pace based on elevation.

PM: 4 miles easy, avg pace 7:30/mile. I pushed Hannah and Nora for two miles but then we got a flat tire.

20-MINUTE TEMPO, 5-MINUTE REST, 5X90 SECONDS, 5X45 SECONDS, & 5X30 SECONDS

I ran from the Dee Events Center. I warmed up with a loop on Weber's campus and then out to South Ogden for 40 minutes and then 5x20 second strides. I then did 20 minute tempo at 5:12/mile followed by 5 minutes rest and then straight into 5 by 90-seconds on/off just under 5:00/mile average, 5 by 45-seconds 4:56/mile average, and 5 by 30-seconds on/off at 4:47/mile average. I was completely spent at the end and my cool down was barely under 9:00/mile pace.
