Scott's loop at 5am with Matt, Scott, Chad, Bryce and Steve. Felt OK at the start and better at the end. (7:20)

 

PM: 6 more on the grass and bark chip trail in Sandy. Weights. Felt good. (7:45)

AM:
Met Matt and Bryce at the Lehi track at 5am. 4 mile warm up. Plan was 4x1600m. Perfect morning. 70 degrees and no wind. 2 mile warm down.

Splits: (5:00, 4:54, 4:56, 5:01), 800m rest in between (about 4 minutes). 

This felt a little harder than last time but the effort was even. On the last one I ran with Matt for the first 800m and then intentionally backed off and cruised the last half. I definitely had one more in me so hopefully didn't overdo it. 

PM: 5 comically slow miles on the grass and bark chips.

Cold hit hard yesterday. I slept in and went out for a big loop around Alpine and Highland around 9:30. Felt pretty good but  my achilles is still sore, persistent bugger.

Ran the Swiss Day's 10K with my son, Ezra. He got his goal at 59:20. I'm hoping with 4 days off my Achilles will be ready for a final push to St. George. It felt good today.
