AM - Big Workout #16 - 6x1000.  Warmed up to the school and did the DI at Tinman.  Then started into the 1000's.  It had been a couple months since I had tried anything like this, so I was a little concerned.  Times were at the upper end of the range (3:19-3:23) 1-3:23, 2-3:22, 3-3:24, 4-3:23, 5-3:22, 6-3:21 with a 200 jog at 1:15 between.  I didn't feel great, but not bad either; it is just hard to do this type of workout when you haven't for awhile.  I also decided that high mileage is going to make times on these workouts in the high range, but as long as I can keep it at least in the range of where it is supposed to be I will take the trade off - I mean, I am already in both feet on this high mileage stuff; I am not a burner anyway, so let's see where this takes me.  Cooled off back home by way of DI and Fire Station and a mile with Molly.  (Triumph 60.2)

noon - 8 Grapevine/Coral Canyon.  I ran again today.  The foot felt really good, but the heat is getting me so I took another nap after I got home from graduation.  (Cumulus gold 370.15)

Good workout, you mileage hog! How are you liking the Triumph's?

I like reading those workouts better than doing them. Don't get too concerned about times right now. Your right the mileage is off the charts AND it's early in the year when it comes to speed stuff. After you run Squaw you can really start to bring the speed stuff back because your base/endurance will be SOLID as a rock.

Jeff,

Triumphs are feeling pretty good. I think they should end up being decent - but not as good as Asics!

Clyde,

If you want to get out early tomorrow morning I could - but I need to be done at about 7:30, so we would need to go EARLY like 4:00'ish. I don't know if you want to do that. Let me know. Or I could run some and then come get you so you wouldn't have to hit it all early or alone. Anyway... let me know.

Dave I could do that. Let me know where and when exactly... and how far your planning so I can plan out drinks and gu's.

Clyde, I just realized we would have to be up earlier than I want to get done in time - and I have no idea on my afternoon as I am supposed to be helping someone move (they were supposed to do it today).

We decided to go up to Provo and need to leave by 7 a.m so tomorrow morning would be very rough for me too. Let try something Sat if your down or up for it.
