Padden ladder today. 1600m, 1200, 1000, 800, 600, 800. 6k of total work.

I simply could not move my legs very fast today. It's been a rough last couple of days. 2 tough midterms yesterday and a couple more to look forward to this week, I didn't feel on top of  my game today.

Roughly 2:30 rest for the first 3 reps, 2:00 rest after that.

14 miles up in the Chuckanuts. Ran my favorite route up there, out to Lost Lake and back. It was absolutely gorgeous. Had to run by myself today because of lab. Pushed the hills just a little bit, trying to work on form.

14 miles, down Boulevard and out on the Urb. Added a turf mile and a bit of Morning Loop at the end.

10k tempo on the Urb. Started in about 5:33, finished in 33:41, 5:13 final mile. I stopped for about 45 seconds after the 5th mile for a quick pit stop, but I don't feel like it affected the workout at all. I felt really great today, which surprised me after pulling an all-nighter last night prepping for a midterm. I managed a 3 hr nap after the exam, but I feel pretty flat.
