Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

The group did hill sprints and relays at the SJ cemetery today.  I felt a little sick until I warmed up into it.  Felt ok when it was all over.  I'm putting down the info I got from my garmin for future reference when we do this run again.

Warm-up:  from the parking lot to the cemetery, around the cemetery, back down to the base of the hill:  9:47 avg.; 7:25 best; 10:57; 1.12m

Tempo run:  up the hill, down the street to the turn around, back to the corner:  8:18 avg; 7:11 best; 5:53; .71

1st cemetery relay:  7:19; 5:07 (that's what it said, I don't believe it either); 1:38; .23

2nd cemetery relay:  6:56; 5:33; 1:34; .23

3rd cemetery relay:  7:02; 6:13; 1:38; .23

1st hill sprint:  7:49; 5:53; 1:39; .21

2nd hill sprint:  8:07; 5:57; 1:39; .20

3rd hill sprint:  up:  55 secs; 8:52 avg.; 5:53 best; .10  down: 45 secs; 7:53; 6:24; .10

4th hill sprint:  up:  55 secs; 8:38; 6:56; down:  44 secs; 7:03; 6:10

5th hill sprint:  up:  53 secs; 8:44; 7:37  down:  43 secs; 7:15; 5:46

Run back to the cars:  8:33; 6:51; .48; 4:05

 

Is this TMI?  I guess I'm just a garmin geek.
