I planned a down week this week. We are vacationing in Moab. I'm not sure how much running I will get in. I started the week with a harder run. I ran an hour progression run. I started at 8.0 mph, and increased .1 every time the song changed on my ipod. I finished at 6:20 pace. To make it more exciting, I also threw in one minute surges every five minutes. The surges started at 6 minute mile pace,and finished at 5:30 pace. I hit nine miles at 60:30. About 6:43 average.

Went to Moab. Lots of hiking. No running. We were up and off to the parks at 7 every morning. The place we stayed was not conducive to early morning runs. So, I got more rest than planned for. Hiking with a baby on my back has to count for some cross training though.

90 minute run, just seeing how far I could get. I hit ten miles in 71 minutes, so I did a fast finish for my last 3. 6:30, 6:15, 6:16 Almost exactly 19 minutes for the last 3. 6:55 average for the whole run. Back on track starting Monday.
