LM warmup (10 reps), 11.92 miles in 1:28:49, 7:26/mi, HR 155, w/ 3 mile warmup, 2 x Strides/Drills, 3 x 10 min Tempo Intervals w/ 4 min rest(6:23/mi, 6:21/mi, 6:16/mi), 3 mile cooldown, PU/SU/Leg ladder (7/7/4) & stretching. Cool (58F) and drizzle. Had to drag myself out today. Wasn't keen on the workout even after the warmup miles...legs felt tired and stiff and body just plain tired. Left hip sore too. But I know this feeling will pass and its just getting back into a routine. I was better able to hold back on repeat one and slowly dole out the extra energy over the 2nd and 3rd repeats, so that each one was a bit faster than the previous. The rest between 2 and 3 was longer as I stopped to chat for a minute with a running neighbor. Core work afterwards was equally painful, but a light day tomorrow was on the horizon so I got through it. All things considered, a good workout. |
