Ran to work tonight. 70 degrees and somewhat humid. First 4.2 in 30:45 (7:19s). Next 4.0 in 29:14 (7:19s). Total run time 59:59 (7:19s). Good even pace throughout. Tomorrow I will try to keep the pace slower in the true fat-zone.
Pretty beat up today. Poor sleep and poor fuel over 2 days has left me trashed. Planned to go 8.5 but just felt completely sluggish. Plus, the Red Wings game was on at 6pm, so I decided to turn it around and only go 5.4 in 41:43 (7:44s).
10 miles of stadium stairs at work tonight. Good progressive run that dipped into some Tempo type paces near the end. Splits for each .75 mile set as follows: 5:48, 5:39, 5:33, 5:30, 5:29, 5:28, 5:26, 5:20, 5:15, 5:13, 5:11, 4:58 followed by 8:15 cool down mile. Running time on the sets was 1:04:57 (7:13s).
Well, this wasn't exactly how I planned to get my miles in today, but miles nonetheless. Ran 3 miles on the track while Eric was at tennis lessons (Ivan did 2 and Elsa did 1 with me) in 21:07 (7:02s). Then 20 minutes later I ran from my house to the Running Center which is 2.8 miles in 21:23 (7:38s). Hit a viscious headwind for about 3/4ths of a mile and another 1/2 mile. Talked to the guys there for about 15 minutes and headed back in 18:53 (6:45s) really pushed it the last mile. Then did a .65 mile cool down in 5:14 (8:03s).
PM: The boys wanted soda at dinner tonight, so I told them they had to run 2 more miles to get that. So 2 miles (4 times around the block) tonight with the boys.
