AM 8 miles. Woke up at 5 and took 15 minutes to get going. I warmed up for a bit and wasn't really feeling it. I went to west and did a few strides on straightaways and then did 2x1000 in 3:36 and 3:38. Since I wasn't really feeling it, I decided to cut the workout and left the track. Also, I arrived before sunrise and awoke at least ten people who are apparently making the track their homeless encampment. There were a few nestled by a wall and a family sleeping on the high jump mats. I just felt like getting out of there. I ran another couple and threw in four 30-40 second Murphys in mile 7. 60 minutes total. Then I came home and did Coach Jay's general strength routine. Lunch 6.35 miles. 15 minutes easy, 15 at MP, 15 easy. Marathon pace was 6:12 for 2.42 miles on the rolling Wasatch blvd. Felt good but it was mid 80s and I was a bit tired/parched. Did some more general strength.
