I went for a easy run out at Draper Lake Hills but the wind was blowing about 30 mph steady and it was a pain in the butt. About 6 miles of my run was into the wind and I thought I was going to die. I went for a easy run and it turned into one of my hardest run in resent history. Also this was my longest run in about a year.
Very cold and windy by the time I got out and ran. I think the wind was about 100 mph F1 tornado. So I decied to go to my favorite place to block the wind. Draper Lake bike trails. I ran 5 easy and the trees block about 85% of the wind so it was perfect until I came out of the woods.
Today day was the day I get to gauge where I'm at in my edurance fitness. I have a 8 mile run with 3 miles at tempo pace. I randomly picked 6:00 min/mile pace. I found out the night before that Jason was going to join me and help push me so it made it nice for my first tempo run. Overall I felt awsome I ran 6:05, 5:55, 5:52. I pretty much guessed where my fitness was pretty good. Thanks to Jason for the pace help. Also thanks to the other guys (JH, Rodger) for the motivation.
