Short, slow, easy run + 4 x 8-sec. hill sprints.

6:41 am, 47-50°F, 74% humidity, winds calm, partly cloudy.

I thought that Lindsay was through running for now on account of pregnancy discomfort, but she wanted to run today. So I met up with her this morning and we did a short slow run together. We crossed paths with Michelle and Michelle who were out running. After we split up, I did my hill sprints.

My plan has my running 6 days this week, so I don't have days off to do the shred. So I decided I better fit the shred in when I have time on shorter run days, so I did the level 2 shred when I got home from my run this morning.

Now I've got to head over to the middle school for a talent show that a band that consists of my son #3 and two of his friends are playing in. My son is the drummer.

It looks like I'm going to take the day off work tomorrow to go to a Rockies game. Fun times.

AP: 10:10. Splits: 10:03, 10:13, 10:02, 0.18 @ 9:39. Pace on hill sprints: 7:12, 7:05, 6:23, 7:17.

Nice run this morning and good luck with the 6 day running week! I always try and take at least Friday as a cross trainer day before my long run Saturday. I'm horrible at 6 day running weeks! A day off for a Rockies games sounds wonderful, enjoy it!

We had fun watching the Rockies their inaugural year. Rock pile seats, but lots of fun.

Glad you had time for a run and shred.

This week sounds like it's got a lot of running in store for you!
