Run fast

Chilly bike ride with JP up Emigration, out Wasatch to 6200 and back. The fall colors more than made up for the frozen toes.

Easy run through Millcreek and Holladay with Nate, JP, Collin and Jason. There was a big debate on how deep the fields were in the 80's, particularly Boston in 1983.

The 1983 Boston Marathon produced the fastest, deepest men’s results an American marathon has ever seen–this in a marathon 30 years before the current “second running boom.” In 1983, 84 mostly North American runners broke 2:20, and 263 bettered 2:28:30.

By comparison, in the super-fast 2011 Boston, where Geoffrey Mutai and Moses Mosop ran 2:03:02 and 2:03:06, respectively, only 22 runners broke 2:20 (and half were East Africans), and 68 runners beat 2:28:30.

Shortish run with JP from SHP, through the cemetary and back. Did a 1 mile pick up in 5:27 on the way back.  I have a little tendinitis in my ankle so I am trying to be careful.

Oh, and the last month of my blog is gone.  Let's hope Sasha's server is backed up.

Easy run from HHS, up 15th through the U and back on Foothill.

easy run through Millcreek with Noah and Jason.

I didn't think I needed another long bike ride but I wanted to cross train so I went to the gym for a stairmaster workout. In 60 minutes I did 4,4,6,12,8,4,6,4 intervals at the highest speed and not touching the bars. 2 minutes rest in between. It was fairly hard.
