LONG RUN

Jon, Albert and I met up early at Lee's Market to get the long run rolling. After 4.5 miles we swung back by Lee's and picked up Dave and Ben. We kept the pace easy almost the whole run. Toward the end we did a tiny progression and hit three sub-6:00 miles at 5:49 5:30 and 5:24. My legs were still feeling Thursday's speed workout, so I didn't want to get too fancy this morning.

The bad news is I left my headlamp on my car on accident after the run and then drove home and lost it somewhere on I-15 I suppose. Sigh. I love that headlamp! Now I have to find a replacement and quickly. Sigh.

first off you are not girl so don't use the word "sigh" again in your posts...ever lol. Anyways, that's my 2 cents. On another note, wouldn't we all love to do summer training what you do year round. :) beast mode zone right now bro. Love your focus and you are only going to improve more and more...make it happen...LEE's Market=Heaven...literally I would probably move to Ogden just for that meeting point :)

5 more miles! Do it and get to 100 miles! Screw waiting until next week. What you need to do is come up North again tonight and we will do that night 5K together and BAM! 100 miles is the bank.
