AM: Slept in, I will sleep in alot before practice starts up ha. Felt good, was getting to hot for my liking to run so i decided to do an intense weight lifting workout. Felt really good, just trying to feel strong again. Run later tonight.
PM: 10 miler up to Tauchaun and back down to Snow Canyon Parkway to the Softball Fields and back to my house. Felt okay, my stomach hurt kinda bad though from eating to much before, but pushed through it. It is perfect weather running after 8. My family came with me on there bikes. Felt okay and kept it at 7:06 pace.
I decided I am going to do what Luke Puskedra did last summer and run 65-75 miles a week, two runs a day and start doing speed work about 2-3 times a week starting at 800 repeats, Mile repeats, hills, fartleks, and tempo runs then move slowly into the track and shorter speedwork. I will lift hard 1-2 times a week and do situps and pushups everyday to boost the strength. Then I will slowly decrease going into the big races, not to much though and not worry about the little races. I think this will really help me and is doubling my miles from last summer. So this will help boost my time alot and make me into that elite runner. I will also get some road races in this summer to help with racing and get to bed no later than 10. I am excited for a good summer of training.
