AM 14.5 Hell's Hole/Dirt Mile. Ran a bit down in Hell's Hole this morning. Checked ou the progress on the new trail - it is coming along very well; it is all ready to be paved and will be awesome, but then the two sides just don't connect. They are still about 200 meters from actually finishing it, and no work has been done on that part. Then got up to practice and we ran 40 minutes with 10 at steady-state pace (basically the idea of Tinman Tempo). A good enough morning that I won't do an afternoon.

AM - 15 Clyde's. Hit the short tempo loop with Logan again. Although I felt surprisingly flat and unmovtivated (thoughts that I had to battle the whole tempo), it ended up being a decent 4.5 miles. Hit an ave of 5:39 and actually had Logan in sight. So some improvement. Then for practice we had an easy 30 minutes followed by Kids Club. My watch died half way through practice so I am guesstimating 15 total for today. Ran in a new pair of Gel Lyte 33's. Haven't had a new pair of Asics for probably 3+ years. They used to be my fave and I still love my old Stratus and enjoy the Landreth. So I thought I would try something with them again. They were decent and I'll see how they break in. (Barefoot '14 21.5)(Lyte33 14.5)

afternoon - 4 Sanberg's. Met at PV with of the VBoys. After they helped me out away the hurdles and high jump mats, we had a nice and easy run to Sandberg's via DpgPound bottom-up. Nice run with the guys and dip in the pond. (Landreth blue 1106.9)

AM - 11.5 Middleton/Grass. Easy recovery run out and back into Middleton and then barefoot on the grass for practice. Ran in the new Kinvara 5's. They felt pretty good. To me, a similar feel as the old ones. Hopefully running in some new shoes will help out a few of the aches and pains a bit. (Kinvara green 7)(Barefoot '14 26)

AM - 17 Clyde's/Grass. 5x3 mins with Clyde and Logan. Took a big gouge out of my foot yesterday evening when I stepped on a hammer, so that hurt quite a bit, but it went numb after a while. Paces were 5:20, :11, :07, :01, 4:58. Felt pretty good about things as I got going. Then over to practice where we went 3x6:00 on the grass. I forgot the feeling of trying to run a workout on the grass and could really feel the difference. Paces here were 5:45, :48, :38. (Everything had 3 minutes recovery today). Good workout for the team. Need to get everyone's camps and church things and stuff out of the way so the team can get working together. Only run for today as the miles kinda added up.

AM - 12.25 Parkway/Coral Canyon. Just an easy recovery day. Ran the Parkway with some extension into the new neighborhood. Then for practice we ran from Coral Canyon up onto Highkand and looped it around. (Kinvara Green 36.25)

AM - 22. I have no idea what to call this loop, so I'll wait until someone else names it. The Circle met up at Dc and ran through Bloomington Hills, Little Valley, and our tempo area out in the Fields and along the river trail. Pace was honest throughout and ended up at 6:37 for me even though I didn't have much at the end. Clyde and Logan hammered out the last two/three and I just plugged along, but still hit under 6:00 for the last bit. I was pretty spent on the run - especially since I had only planned on doing 15'ish - but Clyde made the rules today! (Kinvara Green 58.25). Updated: the name, The Mutha Loop (good work Logan).

Pretty good week. All of the miles except 4 were on singles, so that was about as recovery as it gets (taking the afternoon off).

Goals for next week: I've got Scout camp for the first of the week, so that's lame. I'll miss tempo and just try to get in what I can. Hopefully the week ends up solid.
