Met the group at Four Mile trailhead this morning.  Our friend Becky was kind enough to watch our kids at her home in Boulder so Aaron could join in on the group workout.  

20 min. warm up, stretching strides

10 min. steady (5:59 pace)

3X4 min on, 1 min jog, 1 min hard.  My pace on the 4 minute intervals was 5:38, 5:43, 5:40.  My my pace on the 1 minute hard intervals was 5:02, 5:06, 5:10 

10 min cool down

Achilles felt good. Not perfect, but good.  I'm just really grateful that I was able to out pushing the pace on a beautiful Boulder morning!

It was nice to see the team again and catch up with everyone.  I also enjoyed having Aaron there.  A few more workouts like that and he'll be pushing my pace!

I watched the NYC marathon this morning and thought "Nan could tear them up"! Glad to hear your achilles is on the mend!

You failed to mention the workout was on grass! Nice job.

Toby-Haha, I hate to break it to you but I think I would have been the one being torn up at the NYC marathon. I may have been contender for 4th or 5th American though!

Melody-Oh yes, it was on grass. And it had a nice big hill in the middle. Took me back in time to running temple hills at BYU. Gotta love cross country!!
