AM: (11 miles, 1:34:55). 23:58 wu, 5 x 5`@ 5-10K effort w/3` recovery, 30:24. I would guess the faster bits were about 7:08-7:15, I went farther every one so it was a good workout -- I could tell I was in the right pace/effort because by the last 2 I needed to concentrate on holding pace.
I knew from the start that today was going to be a good running day. It was the first time since the race (over 3 weeks ago) that I was was motivated (both mentally and physically) to run! My landmarks were about 10 seconds faster than usual (which meant I had to slow myself down on my warm-up). I was starting to worry that I would not have the desire/ability to train for this marathon ... I hope I can maintain this now ;-).
PM: (4 miles). |
