noon - Big Workout #14 7xmile LT - 15.  Had no desire to every run again this morning.  Of course I knew this would pass, but it has become a very strong feeling for me lately - either I don't want to run at all or I just can't wait to get out and have the release.  So I didn't fight it and figured I would want to hit this run at some other point.  So I came home from school meetings to check on Ally and decided to run it on the treadmill.  Warmed up with 3 and then 2 TM - interrupted the 2nd TM to put my old Ohanas on.  I was a bit intimidated by this workout, especially since I didn't do it last year as I was tapering a little for Provo 1/2.  I really tried to only worry about the repeat I was on and not the many upcoming ones.  Pace was 5:27 for each of the first 6 and 5:24 for the last with a .15 recovery.  Then I cooled for 2 more.  Workout was tough, but not the most hideous thing I have ever attempted, although the girls did look strangely at me as I grunted through the last few.  (Five Fingers 49.1)(Old Ohanas -11.4)

Five Fingers Miles: 4.60

Great pace, Chief. That must be one heck of a treadmill w/ the speed work and super long runs that you're getting out of it. How many miles can you get out of a tread mill? A lot more if it's a Jeep, right? Maybe touch up one side w/ a little dark red paint and call it good.

You can't even imagine what kind of grunt, noises and distorted facial expressions I would have on my face trying to put those kind of miles and paces together...I am sure my family would be calling an ambulance. Great job!

I did do that one last year and it sucked. Logan pounded me into the dirt over and over again down by the river.

I actually was going to comment to say good job for hitting it on the treadmill... could never do that.

Treadmill seems a little easier on this type of run for me - but more beastly as well.
