This is the week that I start throwing in some double runs. I wanted to front-load this week, and then start backing off a bit on Thursday. I'm running the Draper Days 5k, and then Deseret News Half Marathon. I didn't want two weeks of lowered mileage, so I'm planning on keeping this week in the 65-70 range. That might mean a sluggish Draper Days, but I'm trying to keep the marathon as the major focus. AM: 4 miles easy. I forgot what it was like to only run for half an hour. PM: I wanted a workout somewhere between a tempo run and intervals. I decided on 3 x 2 mile repeats with half mile recovery in between. I warmed up three miles before the workout. 12:00.3, 11:47.2, and 11:40.7 I cooled down until I hit 11. 2 more long days. I can do this.
