AM - Big Workout #13 9 Tinman (17.65). Did my usual Tempo route out into the Fields. Was a little nervous after struggling a bit last week on 8 and now moving to 9, but it turned out very good. First mile was 6:05 then everything else was better - from 5:51-6:01. This workout went how a Tinman should, difficult but not killer. Felt smooth and relaxed for most of it. Maybe that was because I saw Clyde out running and it sent memories of The Circle back to me subconsciously and the body responded! Finished by taking dog around. Anyway, I have reworked my workouts for the rest of the summer w/o SanFran and I will be doing this workout a few more times (mostly on the weeks before races: Squaw this week, Bryce, and Provo). Now to enjoy a little taper, glycogen replenish starts tomorrow night, and easy jog this afternoon. (Triumph 90.5) afternoon - 8 City Wells. Used to call this Grapevine - but I do a lot of runs that stay on the south part of the freeway at Grapevine and some on the north/desert part of Grapevine, so James calls this one City Wells (North/desert) so I'll start using that. Legs were tired just like they should be. (Landreth 838.25)
