Reading Eat and Run by Mr. Jurek, and getting inspired... dietary choses have improved.
Part 1 of Tuesday Double - Lunch run at a 1 mile loop around Silver Creek TWP Park in Sellersburg, IN after Parternering Meeting for I-65. Almost exactly 1 mile around the paved loop. A couple of brief, but steep hills. 7.5mi. MP (Goal Pace) - kept it around 6:15 avg. Anything faster than 6:15 right now quickly approaches sub-AT effort. Encouraging and feeling much closer to fitness goal, but, if I were to go out and attempt 26.2 at 6:15 right now, bad things would happen.
Part 2 of Tues Double - Track workout at CEntral Track. 5x0.5mi. LT - TH, 4x200m max
Intended on more 1/2 mile reps, but, started really straining on rep 4 and 5. Recovered and ended up with some controlled pickups - 200m. Pretty hot on the track this evening sprinklers pointed toward the track kept me alive. Definitely feeling Part 1 of the day, but, that's the point of these, I guess. Kept the halves under 3 min. at least.
