AM - Ran with the Ranger Challenge Team today. It is nice to be able to combine some work with my running on occasion. We warmed up a mile to the Provo River Trail and then I had them do 1/4 mile at their 2 mile race pace followed by and easier 1/4 but not a jog we did this 16 times or for a total of 8 miles and then 1 mile cool-down back to campus. I then ran back and picked up the rest of the group so I ended up with 12 miles at a 7:00 pace average. The 400s felt very relaxed for me on the trail in the dark. I ran them as follows:

1:28, 1:29, 1:26, 1:27, 1:27, 1:27, 1:26, 1:27, 1:27, 1:27, 1:26, 1:27, 1:26, 1:27, 1:26, 1:25

Very consistent marathon pace effort. Will run more tonight with James and Jared.

PM - 4 miles easy; 1 with Jared then 3 with James and 6xstrides and drills.

sorry I couldn't make it this morning. That would have been a fun workout.
