15 minutes on the stationary bike then headed out in the rain.
Was surprised to see some other joggers out. Wasn't too cold but I got drenched. Maybe I should splurge for some rain gear.

You're braver than I was. I hit the treadmill. But the rain gear is totally worth the investment. I'm still running in some that is 10 yr old.

Light jacket and hat should do it. I love the rain. And I will do anything to avoid the treadmill!

Nice miles by the way for the week. So listen...what is your VDOT? I never figured it out...but it has got to be up there.

Good question PRE.
I will have a better idea in a couple weeks when I hit the track but I feel I'm somewhere around 60-62 looking at Daniels. If I'm to break 16 minutes I will need to improve to a 65. When I do some 400 meter repeats I will be able to nail it down better. Sorry for the inexact response.
I'm in total agreement regarding the treadmill and think I will get some rain gear.

ACorn...Hi. Thanks for getting back to me on the question. So about a 61 VDOT give or take one point...and aiming for 65! I wish you well with that. I am about where you are in the sense that my aim is to improve my VDOT by 4 points...I am at 41 and want to be at 45! Your paces are about 2:20/mile faster than mine for Easy, Marathon, Threshold, etc.
I was thinking about you the other day while I was doing my speedwork...putting together my 200s at 6:48/mile. I was moving super fast, incredible turnover, and I was thinking how you carry this pace for long distances - and not straining!!!
