AM - Treadmill at 1% 6x1/2 miles. Felt a little stiff and tired on the 2 mile warmup (7:30). I probably should have run Saturday afternoon or something, but I had a lot of projects to do that took all day and after I was shot. anyway... Got into the 800's feeling a bit tired and I could tell the legs didn't really want to get going. Was able to hit each one at 2:30 without flying off - but I was pretty spent by the last one.
I hope I can reap the benefits of forcing myself to run faster for these longer repeats because of the treadmill pays off. (Cumulus)
afternoon - 5 on 2450 loop then I took a detour onto a paved trail I've been wanting to look at. I didn't think it went to far and it didn't, but if Washington City ever expands it, the Millcreek Trail will be a great one to run on (except for the sign I saw that said "The mosquitos in this area are known West Nile Virus carriers", that did kind of put a damper on the area). anyway, the trail was about 1.5 miles long out and back. (NB) weights (usual routine)
RHR-41 Goals for the week: Run with a little more pride this week. I don't have any races scheduled between now and Boston, so I will just keep on keeping on. Focused and Determined to do well. Bring in a little more tempo running at marathon pace over the next few weeks and hit a 20+ miler on Saturday. Hit week at right about 80 miles. |
