If you ever have any free time, I highly recommend it as a run. It&#39;s super pretty and fun.Uphill, but not incredibly steep, but take it easy. It&#39;s sick</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Sat, 05 Jul 2014 06:00:00 Mon, Jun 23, 2014 http://zgriff.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-23-2014.html <p>Some slow intervals today... 2 miles warm-up, cool-down, then 3 miles ish in intervals. Felt good to get the old deep quad burn/ache instead of the intense pain of track. The deep ache, I don&#39;t know which one is worse. But first mile, I thought the workout was 4 mile repeats, so I went out hard, but not too hard. I thought I would run somewhere around 6 minutes, 6:15, but I ended up running a 5:45 mile. Manchild pulled out a 5:02, I believe in the Manchild. He&#39;s going to be really fast and elite, THIS YEAR. That&#39;s right, an elite runner for the state of Utah. Next year Elite national runner. He&#39;s a champ, and he believes in himself and expects greatness. I believe. Then I ran 2:50, 2:55, 2:50, 800s which felt super duper easy, I was just trying to pull Bella on. Well, I guess not super duper easy, but it felt manageable and if we did a couple more I think I could have dropped down into the 2:40s, but maybe not because wo mei you(I don&#39;t have) any strength. &nbsp;Then a 3:50 800, with the mile cool-down easy, with an intense race finish just for fun haha.&nbsp;</p> Mon, 23 Jun 2014 06:00:00 Sat, Jun 21, 2014 http://zgriff.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-21-2014.html <p>5 ish miles, like with the cool-down on the elliptical. I thought this run was going to be testy because I ate mexican food before but I got through it fine. My stomach has possibly finally become iron..haha I ran the first couple miles easy at 7:30 pace, legs felt tight, I think because of the two long car rides. But finished solid, 1.5 faster at the end. I did 6:30 pace for .5 miles, then went down to 6 then faster for the end. It felt good suprisingly</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Sat, 21 Jun 2014 06:00:00 Mon, Jun 09, 2014 http://zgriff.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-09-2014.html <p>35 minutes, felt ok. Then Abs. Couldn&#39;t finish very fast</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Mon, 09 Jun 2014 06:00:00
