Today's workout was 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 1200, 800, 400 with 400 active recovery between each one. They were having soccer tryouts on the track today at MC so we went to Logan instead for our workout. Kind of funny because the Logan coach asked us if we were from the university. Our average pace was about a 5:20-30 for most of the intervals. The final 800 and 400 tried to go as fast as we could. My calves are kind of sore after 6 miles on the track and now I have a blister under my big toe. Spencer also got a blister. 

Today's workout was a progressive run. Starting at 6:45 and going down 15sec each mile till we hit 5:00 for the last mile. My calves were still sore from yesterday so I didn't quite hit those marks but I was pretty close. My legs were pretty sore afterwards though.

Today was 30, 60, 90, 120s up center street in Providence. My legs were still destroyed from the last two days so it was rough. We were at like 3 miles so we took a long 3 mile cool down afterwards. 

Today we finally got a recovery day. Both mine and Spencer's legs were trash after the last three days. After the 5 miles we did a barefoot mile on the football field. 

Today was 4Xmile repeats at 2 mile race pace with a 400 active recovery. We did a half mile warmup before starting. We did our first mile in 4:51 which is only 12 seconds off my pr. The next repeat was about a 5:08. Then coach wanted us to go 5:20 pace and gradually pick it up for our 3rd mile. Ended up being about a 5:18 mile. For the final mile coach wanted us to not go any faster than 5:30 because we were so wornout from this whole week. It turned out being about a 5:23 for the final mile. Then we did a mile barefoot to cooldown.

Today was just awful. I went with Spencer. Everything was so sore I could barely jog. We did 10 miles starting at Zollinger and going to the Providence Cemetary. Up to the canyon around USU and back down main street.
