West High track session with James and Brayden. Didn't feel my healthiest after a terrible Labor Day feast of delicious foods that are not so great for you. Was a bit sluggish all morning and could feel the effects of my poor culinary choices with each passing lap.

Did 4 x 1600. Laps were 6:24, 6:26, 6:20, 6:16.

Had a .5 mile active rest between sets.

Looking forward to a tough test this Saturday.

8.5 slow miles.

Slept passed my alarm and only had time for 7 miles, but when I got home, I was locked out. So, I thought Cass must have gone for a walk. The garage keypad wasn't working for me, so I just went on another 1.5 loop to add a little more mileage for the week.

Along wasatch up LCC. Back down past La Caille and down Danish to Bengal. Up Bengal to finish.

There were a couple of miles climbing and a couple of downhill. Pushed the downs slightly to compensate for the climbs. Two faster miles were 6:49 and 6:55

Met James, Hille, and Brayden forma St Geezy simulation run. Started at Big Mountain and ran the Des News course. Kept it nice and easy for the first 6 miles at about 7:10. Then James and Hille sped up just before climbing up to Little Mountain. We all spread out during the climb. I was about a 7:35 avg during the 1.4 mile climb. A quick drink of water and GU and some tempo miles down Emigration.

Splits were 6:51, 6:47, 6:38, 6:35, 6:27, 6:33, 6:29, 6:44, 6:47, 6:45

A couple of laps at Liberty Park to round out the 21.

Felt pretty good throughout and was a good training week for me.
