AM - 15.1 mile Sasha big workout day. Average pace for entire run was 6:57. Warmed-up for 6.2 miles at about 7:30 average. Then started Sasha's 5 mile tempo with him. Legs felt very sluggish today so I just decieded to go 2.5 miles with Sasha. I hit 14:07 (5:39 pace) for the 2.5 mile slight up hill section and then backed off for a mile at the turn. ran the next mile in 6:39 and felt like a complete jog so picked it up again running what felt like easy marathon effort hitting 6:00 and then finished the last 1/2 mile in 2:50. Felt like I could run 6:00 pace all day but at 5:39 pace the legs felt heavy and sluggish. Ok workout overall, not to worried about lots of quality right now as I am more focused on building a large base of high mileage first and then the quality will come as the body adapts over time. As usual more tonight with the boys.
PM - 3.4 easy miles with 4xstrides and drills with James. |
