Recovering From Microfracture Surgery

Easy run day with tired but not exhausted legs. Finished the week out with 73+ miles. Three weeks in a row over 70 miles. 9 weeks until goal race.

Logged 10 miles on the legs today at average pace of 7:35. Not much else exciting other working about 12 hours a day.

Tough workout today. This is a workout that I dread before hand but is definitely worthwhile. Total of 12 miles today with 7 miles at sub 6 paces.

After warm-up ran the following on track.

3200m - 11:54 {6:00|5:54} 5min rest

3 x 1600m - 5:41|5:41|5:40 3min rest between

3200 - 11:36 {5:48|5:48}

Overall pleased with results of this workout. Used to do this much faster but I am getting there step by step.

12 easy miles on tired legs, not much else to say.

Easy 8 at 7:35 avg pace. Another tough workout scheduled tomorrow.

Big thunderstorm changed workout plans this morning. Ended up doing 7 miles on treadmill at 7:30 pace. Will get some more miles later and then do harder workout tomorrow instead of today. Added 2 more miles with 8 and 13 year old sons.

13 mile run today with about 8 miles at 7:00 or under pace. Overall averaged 7:10 for 13 miles in the rain. Today was interesting as first couple miles the legs felt bad but then from 3 to 7 miles they felt ok. From mile 7 or 8 until 13 the legs were fried. Maintained 7 min pace or just under but it was hard work with heavy tired legs.
