Objective: 14 mile long run Well, this one didn't work out like I had hoped. Between yesterday's run, the hills near the campsite for today's run, and a possible lurking head cold, I had to cut this one short. The pace was okay, at 7:46/mile, but I didn't have a whole lot of energy. I didn't feel that great post-run either, but am looking forward to a better run tomorrow. 5 weeks down, 13 to go!

| Objective: 3 easy miles I only lasted a couple of hours at work today with my newly-blossomed head cold, but after a few hours on the couch decided I didn't want to skip the easy run day. I guess my legs felt good, the splits were 7:26/7:26/7:14..it was harder than usual since I didn't feel 100%, but I'm glad I got the miles in. | |

| Objective: 7 miles, pace depends on how I feel NyQuil is a wonderful thing. I took some last night and promptly slept for 11 hours, feeling a whole lot better. I planned on going in to work at noon so once I was awake and functional I figured I might as well knock out today's run. It felt mostly good..my pace was solid (7:09/mile) but my heart rate jumped in the last couple of miles (from 165 to 170 to 174 avg), which I assume was just a function of not being 100% healthy. I'm glad I did the run though, now I'm off to work for half a day! |

| Objective: 3 easy miles I went faster than I normally would, as tomorrow has been adjusted to a rest day instead of interval day. We've got evening plans, and I don't want to fool myself into thinking I can do fast intervals in the morning so I'm just pushing them back until Friday. Churned out an even 7:00/mile overall pace, with 7:22/6:54/6:47 splits and a fast finishing kick. My heart rate stayed in the 160-167 range during those faster miles, so I didn't overdo anything...and now I get tomorrow as a glorious rest day :) |

| Objective: 5 x 800 intervals, 3:00/interval As usual, my "800m" is .54 miles so aiming for 3:00/interval is a 5:33/mile pace. Apparently I'm still not ready for that, as my splits were 3:03, 3:05, 3:07, 3:16, 3:10 (5:42-5:58/mile). These times are definitely good enough, and have made me realize that the 3:00/interval goal is more of an end-of-training ideal. I've got a couple more interval days in the next 12 weeks and if I can improve to the point where I'm hitting those splits, it'll be a big win. | |

| Objective: 7 mile pace run Whew, today was a tough one. My lingering congestion made breathing pretty tough in the second half of the run and my heart rate was much higher than normal (got up to 185 bpm, averaged 168 bpm). Still, I met my goal, averaging 6:56/mile with each one between 6:43 (mile #7) and 7:08 (mile #1). My legs had no trouble after yesterday's speed work, and I expect tomorrow's 10 miler to be a lot easier physically. | |
