It was a very rainy day, today. I took my workout to the treadmill. I ran a 15 minute warm up, followed by 10 sets of 3 minutes on, 2 minutes off. I started the fast ones at 10.5 mph, and increased my pace .1mph every 2. For the recovery I dropped to 8.3 mph, which is about 7:13 a mile. I just ran the cool down to 11 miles afterward. My total time for 11 miles was 69:33. It was a good workout, because my heartrate stayed fairly elevated on the recovery.

I decided to split up my mileage today.
A.M. I ran a 7.5 mile loop from 1300 W to 2700W to 5400S and home. I tried to take it easy and not look at my watch the whole time, so that I would slow down a little. I felt pretty good despite tired legs. Total time was 50:32. The good news is that my calves are starting to feel better. It was probably smart not to run on the track yesterday. I don't think my calves like my racing flats.
P.M. 4.5 miles on the River trail with Teren and Cole. | | Add Comment |

I ran a 15 minute warm-up, followed by 30 sets of 1 minute on, 1 minute off. Then, I cooled down 15 minutes. It was nice to get some turn-over. I felt pretty good besides having tired legs. | | Add Comment |

| Slogged (I don't think that's a word.) through 6.5 miles this morning. I ran 2200W to 3800 S, over to 2700W, back to 5400S, and home. I have extremely tired legs after yesterday's fartlek. I need to do what I can to get recovered for tomorrow's 9 mile tempo run. There are definitely days when I wonder why I want to run a marathon. Training for 5k's and 10k's is a lot easier. I hope this pays off. | | Add Comment |

| I have tired legs. I could only manage 6:05 pace for my tempo run today. Cardiovascularly I felt all right, my legs just weren't firing. I felt like I was going as fast as I was able to, but that I could keep going at that pace. I'm sure once I get used to increased mileage the time will come down. I don't think I'm able to do 3 hard workouts a week plus a long run and get recovered. I think I will cut out the midweek fartlek run. I warmed up 3 miles, and ran a 1.5 mile cool down. Total time for tempo: 54:51 | | Comments(1) |

| I ran down 2200W to 3500 S. I hopped on the river trail and ran out to the four mile mark past Gardener Village. Then, I turned around and ran to Millrace Park, and then home. Total time was 2:01:05. I measured the 12 miles on the river trail because I knew where the marks were. I ran 1:17:30. I'm thinking that my total run may have been over 18 miles. I felt really good today. Cardiovascularly I'm getting stronger. It's kind of weird that I can run 6:30-6:40 miles easily, but yesterday I was struggling at 6:05's I wasn't pushing at all today. It felt really comfortable. Next week is my first 20 miler. I've never run one before. | | Comments(2) |
