Workout at Lehi tempo loop with Nate, Trevor, Reed, Chad, Jeff, and Chris. Nate, Trevor, and I worked together.

Did a 10k workout:  5 x 1k @ 3:20 average (range 3:16-3:22), which is 5:21 min/mile pace; with 5 x 1k "rest" intervals in 3:51 average, which is 6:11 min/mile pace. Overall average pace for the entire 10k was 5:46 min/mile. Felt very good. Could have done many more intervals, but that's the point right now -- finishing feeling fresh.

20 miles on the flat Murdock Trail (starting in Orem) in 5:54 average with Mike, Iain Hunter, and Jason Witt. Ran 14 miles in 5:59 average, then ran 4 miles at marathon pace (5:36, 5:29, 5:24, 5:27), then 2 final miles in 6:20 each. Felt really good. Had a lot more in the tank, but that's the point.

Thought about doing one more marathon-pace mile, but decided to err on the side of caution and not over-do it. I ran with Iain throughout the tempo. Jason Witt ran with us for 3 tempo miles, and then his final 2 tempo miles were 5:14 and 5:11 (and this was a 25 mile run for him; he had done 5 miles before we started). These guys are in great shape. Mike did great as well -- he's finally kicking his sickness.
