Relentless

AM - 6 AC/Lutheran. I just have no desire at all to wake up earlier than necessary for practice and get extra miles in. (F50 468.5)

afternoon - 8.5 4x1000. Warmed and cooled with DI and hit 4x1000 with Abel. Wasn't sure if I could help him with the workout, but it went well. His goal time was 3:10. We went 3:06, 3:09, 3:10, 3:09. He then killed his 300. He is really working into quite the runner. Finished up with weights. (Zero 182.25)

AM - 11 Parkway/AC/Lutheran.  Was able to get out of bed and get the extra miles in since I can't get any more with a track meet this afternoon.  (Kinvara3 320.75)

AM - 12 Parkway/Pizzax2/laps.  Doing better at forcing myself out of bed - 2nd day in a row!  Tried to get up early enough to take the dog around after the Parkway, but only had enough time to go the short block (need about 3 more minutes).  Up the Parkway I did 5x10 sec hills (like yesterday).  Then at practice ran Pizza warm and cool and laps as some of the team ran their workout.  (Hyper Speed 340.25)
afternoon - 7 Starbucks. Easy pre-race run with the team. I jumped in on the 4x200's and then ran with my girls a bit when I got home. (?)

AM - 11 Buena Vista/AC/DI ext. Up again to get some mileage with a meet this afternoon. I was excited to no have to train during track season, but I guess somehow I am going to try now. Felt like a slug this morning. (Stratus grey 1092.35)

morning - 15.5 PV/River Trail. No school, so practice at 8:00. Ran over and then a 10 miler with 20 minute tempo with the team. Tempo was a good progression through AT, starting at 5:45 and working into the :20's for an average of :33. It was good to push a little even though it was only for 20 minutes. Slowly that will start growing now. Then ran home. (Mana 327.5)

morning - 15 Prospector. Not too shabby. I love running in the desert. Great cool temps and a nice sunrise. (VertK 88.5)

Got the mileage up a bit this week (even with multiple singles) and got a few starter workouts in to beat me up a little.

Goals for next week: take it a bit closer to 100 (probably around 95) and extend the tempo session and another interval session. Have decided that if I am going to run UV I had better get going a bit, but... I am not going to stress too much about it - I can't make it my number 1 priority of the spring (just too much going on).

Just 282.25 miles for the month. A very low month for me. I just need to remember why (because I was worn down and recovering from a long tough set of marathon training and I needed it) so I don't beat myself up about it. Only drove 112.2 in the Jeep though, so I am still way ahead for the year. 400.2 driving vs. 1147 running.
