4 in 34:18 and 2 in 16:01. I was slower because I worked for 8 hours and was constantly moving.

Did a one mile warmup then Sasha paced me for 3 miles. I got 19:01. Did 6:00, 6:25, and 6:36. I felt good throughout and didn't crash until 1.25 on the hill. The first mile felt much easier than usual. I was just too afraid of going faster and wasn't ready to do this big workout. I felt very tired throughout the day but not as bad as usual.

51:58 at the Spanish Fork trail. It was hot and I was still a bit drained from yesterday.

3 in the morning in 25:14 and 3 at night in 26:43. It is hard to go faster on this road at home. I am still struggling with weird energy levels. Some days I have too much I can't focus and some days I don't have enough to stay awake. Exercise and sleep don't effect it so maybe it is more of a hormone problem. 

On the last 3 miles of the last quarter I experienced a miracle. I believe I could have died or gotten seriously injured. A car was coming close so I stepped off the road for 3 seconds to let it pass me safely, then I started running again. After about 10 feet of running a deer comes bolting out of someone's yard to get away from a dog, exactly 3 seconds in front of me. If that car was not there to make me stop I would have gotten clobbered by that deer that was going extremely fast. Right before this incident I was thinking about the hymn Come Unto Jesus where it says "oh know you not that angels are near you", I was also pondering God's power in my life and deeply wanted to have Him in my life more. I think think this was a sign that God is in control and angels are watching out for me.

2 mile warmup in around 16:00, then Sasha paced me for 3 miles. He dropped me at 1.25 but I finished in 19:00 with 6:02, 6:32, and 6:26. The last quarter was in 88. Went home in 18:24 for 2. I decided to not fight my exhaustion and slept another 2 hours. I got enough sleep, I just can't function after runs. At 3:00 in 85 degrees, Jonas Boekweg came over to run. He did 1 in 8:31; it was a slight struggle for him. Sasha told us to pace better and he got 6:54! I don't think he wanted to let me down, he pushed really hard. He is now "qualified". Sasha gave him a training plan and Jonas wants to continue running.
