| PM- 10 on the treadmill in Florida. The building I work in on the space center has a gym facility on the first floor, so at least it is convenient, even though there are only 3 rather old treadmills. Better than running outside right now, with a heat index of 95 deg. No soreness and minimal fatigue from the race- my legs have finally adjusted to all the downhill trail pounding I can give them. | |

PM- 15 easy. And boring.
After dinner PM- 5 more.
Found a few links about the race on Saturday- they're saying it was one of the most stacked trail races.

AM- 14 on the beach watching the sunrise. Absolutely no wind on the way out, strong headwind on the way back. I've discovered I drink about twice as much water with no wind (1 bottle every 30-40 min) than with a headwind (1 bottle every hour+).
5 PM- 7 more.
10 PM- 6 more while watching the entertaining Wipeout on TV. I only intended on 4 but felt good so kept going.
I ended up with 27 miles today, and 47 over the last 2 days. I think I'll be working a lot the next few days, which will probably result in less running- not a bad thing. |

AM- 6. My legs definitely have that overall tired feeling to remind me that I'm putting a lot of miles on them this week. No pains or injuries, per se, just an overall fatigue and soreness. Hopefully I'll be able to do a BTW tomorrow before I head into work.
PM- 4. |

AM- Big Treadmill Workout. I had debated what workout would be the least tedious on a treadmill and settled on a tempo run. But an even tempo gets boring, so I did a progressive tempo. 5 miles warmup, then started at about 6:20-6:30 pace (not sure- the treadmill definitely was going faster than it said it was- I've done lots of miles on this treadmill this week, and its "7:30 pace" is definitely faster than that). Every 0.5 mile I bumped up the speed. This really broke it up so I could think of only the next 1/2 mile increment. Watched soccer on ESPN the whole time. It was warm in the room with no fan, so my shirt was quickly soaked, sweat was flying off me, and eventually even my shorts (!) were drenched and sticking to me. Ick. Anyways, kept pushing the pace every half mile until I hit 8 miles of speedwork. Decided to throw on one more speed mile, so total speed workout of 9 miles, finishing at 11 mph (5:27 pace)- rather tired by the end. 3 miles cooldown, 17 miles total for the run. Scarfed down a huge breakfast at the hotel, then headed to work.
PM- 3 more before bed. You didn't really think I was going to stop at 99 for the week, did you? Weekly mileage PR by 1.5 miles. Feel good, only a little twinge in the bottom of my foot. Hopefully another 100+ miles next week, then take an easy week which happens to coincide with TOU 1/2. |
