| | 16 mile long run: Solid long run this morning. Started with 9 miles averaging 6:35 then went straight into a 5 x 1 mile workout with 1 min jogs between each repetition. Splits on the miles were 5:46, 5:43, 5:42, 5:38, 5:40. I was working on the last couple. After the miles I ran another mile and a half or so to finish off the run. 6:22 avg. for the whole run. Overall this was a hard long run which was exactly what I was looking for. I believe you must practice running fast when you are already tired in order to do so in a race. I didn't do that very well in Boston and I hope to improve on that.

| | 10 miles starting at Freestone Park and then along the canal. I finally cracked this morning and went back to bed after I had my running shoes on. I was close to making it out the door but didn't make it. Anyway, stopped on the way home and got 10 in. Felt pretty good but the heat made it a little tough. 6:59 avg.

| | 12 miles with a VO2 Max workout. I warmed up 4 miles with drills and strides then did 2 x 2 mile on the road with a 3 min jog between. Splits were 10:48 and 10:44. I went out faster on the first mile of both so I had a bit of a positive split on both reps. This workout was pretty hard, especially the second mile of the second rep. I was happy with the times though and I feel very fortunate to have completed it. It's been a tough week. Cooled down about 4 miles to finish off the workout.

| | 18 miles: Another solid long run today. I started with 10 at 6:42 avg. pace then went straight into 2 x 3 mile with a mile easy between. I ran the first set in 5:43, 5:40, 5:39, ran a mile in 6:57 then did the second set in 5:39, 5:40, 5:34. The second set was tough. I'm trying to get used to running the faster parts off a faster pace in the beginning. The mornings are warming up but it wasn't too bad this morning. 6:23 average pace for the whole run. Tired!
