AM - 12 miles. 4 mile warmup to HHS + 8 x 100m strides. Workout was 5 x 800m (3K, 2:00) in 2:17.5 average. Exact same average as last time, but splits were tighter today. Since I didn't go any faster, I needed to add something to the session, so I did 10 x 200m (1500, 200m jog) in ~33 seconds average. Should have been a man and just added on an additional 800m rep. Cooled down 3 miles back home.
PM - 3 miles. Laps around the Alta parking lot for 25 minutes. We might have spent close to 3 hours in the hot tub before/after dinner. My muscles should be sufficiently loose now.
Workouts were sort of "blah" this week... in some ways I felt like I was just going through the motions. It's difficult to keep the sharp mental focus all the time. The important thing is that I start to dial it back in over the next two weeks as I get closer to Indianapolis.
