Easy Hill Run

Running, Training 1 Comment »

Ran an easy 5.5 miles to start out the running week. I have been at scout camp so I havn’t had a good workout since last Saturday when Tammy kicked my butt by almost a minute in the 4th of July Freedom Run.

I really need to start getting back into my training full go. I have been slacking the last 3 weeks especially with biking and swimming. My next tri is going to be slooowwww if I don’t start pushing it again.

Workout Updates

Even though I have taken the last couple weeks off from posting to the blog I have still been going strong with my training. To get me updated I am posting all my runs for the past couple weeks. Since April 28th, 2008 I have run about 115 miles, biked about 130 miles and swam probably 10 miles. By the looks of it I need to start working harder on my biking and my swimming.

Spanish Fork Memorial Day 5k 2008Spanish Fork Memorial Day 5k 2008

We had a big group run the Spanish Fork Memorial Day 5k. It was a ton of fun. Tammy, my Mom, Merri Hacket, Karen Grant, Brandon Carter and myself all ran the 5k. Broc ran the 1 mile fun run. Everyone did awesome and we cleaned up with medals.

Merri came in first in our group, 4th girl overall and second in her age group with a 20:23
I came in second in our group and 2nd overall in my age group with a 21:55
Tammy came in 3rd in our group, 7th girl overall and 4th in her age group with a 22:25
Brandon Carter came in 4th in our group and second overall in his age group with a 22:35
Karen Grant kicked butt, came in 7th overall in her age group with a 2 something
My mom came in second overall in her age group with a 29:43

The big story is that Broc ran his first mile. He finished in 10:19. He is four years old and ran a 10 minute mile! He is destined for super-stardom!

Mile 1: 6:26 Mile 2: 14:56 (8:30) Mile 3: 21:22 (6:26) Mile 3.1: 21:55 (33 Seconds)
