AM: Started this morning with a 5 mile progression run. ( I have no idea what my pace was, because the battery in my watch has died.) Then did 10 x 400m hills (walk down the hills after each) Finished off with a cool down to reach about 12 miles. I will watch the second half of the Hakone Ekiden today. I am cheering for Tokai University. They are currently about 3 minutes behind that leader. It has been a fast race this year. Nearly every stage record has been broken, and the course record for the first half of the race was also broken by the first four teams. It is probably because nearly every runner is wearing the NIKE Vaporfly shoes. Below is a link to a summary of the first day of the race. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=cPvgb0s_ovo&feature=emb_logo I will run more this afternoon. PM: 6 easy miles |
