| Ended this last week with a couple rest days and overall a low mileage week. Looking back at my training from high school and college I think a big reason I got injured in college is I never took weeks off or really even eased up on mileage. Today I ran up to the canal road and then did 3 miles at somewhere between threshold and marathon pace (6:30s), those 3 miles were also sandwiched between 2 miles where I averaged 8:20 pace and gained 600 feet of elevation. After all of that I bombed downhill for the next 2 miles in 11:08. It was too steep to maximize the downhill but it was fun, I should avoid going down 500- there are definitely less steep ways to get down through pleasent view that are less likely to wreck my knees over time. | | Add Comment |

| Afternoon- Easy stroller miles Evening- 6x90 seconds at mile pace. I think this averaged out to just under 5:00 pace but it's impossible to tell, there was like a 30 second pace difference depending on which which direction I was running. Also ran a couple strides afterwards. I was pretty generous with the rest I gave myself since this is my first workout at this pace in a long time, and because it was freezing out and I didn't want to run into asthma issues- I'd estimate I averages about 2 minutes of rest. | | Add Comment |

| Played some tennis earlier on and then did a 4x 1200, 400 workout with Jake with 1 minute rest after the 1200s and 4 mins rest after the 400s. My times were 3:59, 73 4:06, 73 4:05, 77 2:42, 72 I did an 800 instead of a 1200 on the 4th set because I was blowing up on that 3rd 400m and I probably would have run like 4:20 for a 1200m. 2 hard workouts in a row, felt pretty good. Not an awful performance on this. | | Add Comment |

| Ran about 2.5 miles with a goal range of mid 6 minutes and averaged 6:22. Ran another 2/3rd mile segment at a 5:20s pace to break the segment record closest to my house. I will take over all the Strava segments in the area, starting with this one and expanding outwards in all directions until I am met with an unbreakable segment. I'm feeling really good, starting to drop a little weight. I ate a ton of food while building mileage and now I'm cleaning up my diet a little while trying to to maintain around 40 mpw. | | Add Comment |

| Warmed up a couple miles and then ran 4x400, 4x200, 4 strides building up to 50 meters of sprinting. Was going to do 8x400 but my throat was getting irritated and I was feeling like crap so I decided to focus more on moving my legs faster. | | Add Comment |

| Nice run in the rain with close to 1000 feet elevation gain. Ran a 17:25 5k on the way back down. I think I could run pretty fast if I do one of those downhill half marathons. | | Add Comment |
