"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka
"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

| | From the house at 9:40 AM. to LPT, out and back. Sunny, 50F, winds variable 2-8 mph. 4 mile tempo @GHMP and 3 mile tempo @ GHMP (HMP = 8:15) 3 mile warmup 4 mile tempo (8:07,8:09,810,8:01) 8:07 Avg. 1 mile easy 3 mile tempo (8:11,8:16,8:17) 8:15 avg. 2.1 mile cooldown. I feel okay about this workout. A little dissapointed that I faded so much in the second tempo. But that's what this is for right? To push myself. If I can run the half with an 8:15 pace, that will be 1:48:05. My goal is to beat 1:50, so I'll keep working on the 8:15 target in my workouts. 1:54:24/8:44 |

High noon on the LPT. Weather: no comment.
Although not reflected by my pace, I felt gooder than usual today.

Early lunch. From the house to LPT out and back.
Weather: thank goodness it wasn't "60 dgrees and sunny, with calm winds" today, that would've really been a drag.
Exact same pace as yesterday. |

Got a late start (2:00 PM). On the Bluff trail. Light rain, 39F wind out of the NW 4-12 mph.
After the first mile I started feeling dizzy/vertigo. I thought maybe it was the strong crosswind playing with my sense of balance. I stopped at mile 3 to see how I felt and I felt weak and shaky...but I decided to press on another mile and turn around for 8. However, when I got to 4 miles I started feeling alot better so I kept going to 6 then turned around. On the trip back I started feeling really strong with my last 3 miles avg. 8:15/mile. So, optimism wins again.

Slogfest on the Bluff trail. Partly cloudy, 52F, wind variable 8-15mph. Weather looked better today than it has for awhile, so I won't complain about the wind...the windy wind...not going to complain...
Barely got my 60 for the week, but at least I did it in six days so tommorrow can be a rest day. Shooting for 70 miles next week. |
