LM warmup, 6 miles in 45:25, 7:34/mi, HR 148, w/ 12 x 12 sec Hill Sprints at mile 3 hill, 1.5 mile cooldown walk w/ dogs, & stretching. Nice fall day, partly cloudy with no rain (49F). Felt a bit tired on the run, but the hill sprints were strong. Actually, didn't feel so hot for most of the run, but nothing to get excited about. I'm not officially a hill sprint believer. I can tell I've made a significant progression over this training cycle in leg strength. Much of the increased speed is because my strides are longer at the same (180+) turnover. Even heading uphill, my legs have really started feeling strong. Most of all, I've kept the hip/groin injury I battled with for several months at bay and I daresay it's much better now than when I started the training. Much of which I attribute to the steep hill sprints I've been doing twice a week fairly religiously. I've also found they're a decent predictor of how I'll do in my hard workout the next day (as advertised). So yes, I'm a fan.

| LM warmup, 7.87 miles in 57:40, 7:20/mi, with 3 x 1 mile @ 10K in ~ 6:14 (up), 6:13 (out and back), and 5:58 (down), 1.5 mile cooldown walk w/ dogs, & stretching. Warmer and mostly dry (55F). Garmin lost the workout data, so time and splits are from memory. What I cannot forget is that I felt like crap throughout the workout......the "on" paces felt horribly hard. It happens.

| LM warmup, 8 miles in 58:32, 7:19/mi, HR 156, 2 mile cooldown walk w/ dogs & stretching. Gorgeous day...partly cloudy and 58F. Even more tired this morning....pushed a bit on the run despite tiredness and made really good time. Tonight I must start resting more, although with the holidays, it'll be difficult. Nice long walk w/ dogs to enjoy the fleeting weather.

| LM warmup, 7.12 miles in 50:00, 7:01/mi, HR 156, w/ 2 mile warmup, 2 x Strides/Drills, 3.1 miles in 20 minutes @ HM pace (6:27/mi), 2 mile cooldown. 1.5 mile walk w/ dogs & stretching. Sunny and pleasant (47F). Lackluster warmup, decent effort & feeling 20 minute tempo at HM pace....felt very doable. Faster cooldown. Still a bit tired, especially the legs, but starting to come around.
