Big Workout #2

2 mile warmup

4x5:00 at CV pace (figure each was about 1200m on average)

5:00 rest pace in between each repeat

10:00 easy

6 mi. @ marathon pace

finished at easy pace

Weather was miserable. Windy and dusty with just enough rain so that I won't be able to see out of my windshield because of the dirt stuck on it. Also, my throat has been really scratchy and cruddy the last couple of days. Hope it's just the dust from the wind blowing, and that I'm not coming down with something. Pretty blah today, but got the workout in. Figure my body should get used to doing this regularly. Very hilly run. Ran from my apartment to First Dam, then along Canyon Road to Merlin Olsen Park, and then up through River Heights into the mouth of Dry Creek Canyon. Going out was where my intervals took place, so the last couple were up some pretty good hills. First couple were more or less on a slight downhill. Coming back I rested for a few minutes and then put it on marathon pace and hit cruise control until a couple miles out and then cooled down the rest of the way. Hard workout. Hopefully it helps me get faster.

Easy run. Macey's Loop. Huge improvement on recovery compared to two weeks ago. Legs were still tired, but it didn't hurt or anything and I felt comfortable rather than having to drag myself through the run. Throat feels much better than yesterday. Moist air probably helps, although there isn't much worse than running with snow constantly flying in your face and eyes. Wish it would decide to be Spring already.

This week started out great, but a nasty head cold and sore throat really put the kibosh on finishing it out. Still got some good quality workouts in, and todays run, although a little sluggish, was not bad. Didn't want to push it too hard right after being sick, so I took it short and easy. At least my body has had a chance to recover from any fatigue from the running, so I should be shipshape by Monday. Better next week.
