Last year we did an easy run in the morning and then a fartlek workout at about 5 and it was over 100 degrees, so this year they switched it up so it was perfect weather. Each morning we would head out for our run at 6:45 so i was cold when we got to kawanis, but by the time we were doing it, I was sweating but it wasnt hot at all. The workout was 5 min on, 5 min off, 4 min on, 4 min off, so on down to 1. We got a 4 minute warm up, so the five was really hard I was just getting my legs warmed up. I was in the back for the 5 and 4 and then in the middle for the 3 and then in the front for 2 and 1. Here's how long it was and how far I went.

5:02- .87

4:00- .73

3:07- .55

2:02- .39

1:00- .20

Good hard workout. If yur not familiar with Kawanis Park, its kinda a square and the north and south are flat, then the east side is uphill and the west side is downhill. And one lap is a mile, so we got a little bit of everything. Cool down to 7.  

Tuesdays second run was on the Provo River Trail. I only had 3 miles left for the day so an easy 3 at 7:31. One of the tunnels, that goes under one of the roads was totally flooded and went up to my ankles so we cruised thru it and it got me hecka turnt and my shoes felt like I ran thru a few water jumps. 

Tuesday night we had the dance and it was a good time with the homies.
