3 BY 3,200-METER FARTLEK

I met Ben at Smiths at 5:00 and we warmed up three miles to the Ogden High track. We met Denver and Matt there. Workout was three sets of two-mile fartleks. There was some snow in lanes 1-3 on one 30-meter long stretch, but other than that it was clear. Going around the snow didn't cost us more than maybe 3-4 seconds per two-mile rep.

Set 1: 76.4, 88.4, 74.5, 91.8, 74.1, 74.1, 89, 73.3 for a total of 10:41

Set 2: 70.8, 85, 72.4, 86.1, 72.4, 73, 87.4, 71.2 for a total of 10:18

Set 3: 70.6, 83.4, 69.9, 82.3, 71.1, 72, 81.4, 70.2 for a total of 10:00

5.65 miles from 27th Street Trailhead, up Taylor's Canyon, over into Hidden Valley, and looping back on the shoreline trail, avg pace 12:47/mile. We hit fresh snow and gained 2,150 feet in 2.5 miles. Luckily Bret brought a pair of microspikes for each of us. That was the first time I've worn spikes and they are nice to have on those really steep sections (going up, but also coming down). I can see how they'd be very useful once the trails are packed down and somewhat icy.

16.75 miles out on Antelope Island with Bret (Ferrier), Brett (Hales), Denver, Tyler Call, and Matt Wolpert, avg pace 7:18/mile. It was my first time running out there and it was enjoyable. It's cool to see the lake right there along the trail.
