First day of 2nd year of med school. This week is very busy until wednesday. Hopefully then I can get some real miles in. And maybe a workout on friday!
8.7 on the haynes classic, One great thing about this course is that it is so versatile in the distance that you do. I could do anywhere from 5 to 10 with very little repeat by adding on bits here and there.
Ran to the closest border with MA and back with a friend and then ran the haynes classic to get some real mileage. I was hoping to do a real trail run today but it turns out I dont get wednesdays off until starting in 3 weeks.
red rooster ramble 5 miler as a tempo run. I did 30:56 (6:11 pace) and won. There was actually a pack for the first 2 miles and then one more guy stayed with me till mile 3 and then fell off. I was a bit disappointed with this pace, but it wasn't really cold and its the fastest thing Ive done for 3 weeks. I think it will come back and I will improve a bunch if I get some racing and vo2max work in.
I havent been on the internet much lately and I just found out that matt is coming to this race tomorrow after all. I am a little annoyed because I am totally not tapered and don't have a whole lot of speed or endurance right now. All I have is pretty consistent mileage without a taper. A goal of mine is to beat matt at one trail race this year, but its not gonna be this race. I am gonna call which one, peak for it, taper, and go all out.
