| | AM: 12 miles easy + 4x100m fast strides with drils between reps.
PM: Standard Core Routine + jack knives, inverse planks, and more standard planks.
I went to the pool this evening to go pool running and apparently it was closed because some kid dropped a deuce in the pool and they had to sanitize it. I was looking forward to my pool run but alas I did some extra core work instead.
Man I love my NB 890s...light, quick, and efficient, they match my stride perfectly. I just wish they were more durable. Say 600 miles on a pair instead of 400. I felt pretty cruddy this mornig since I ate like shit yesterday. A lot of beer and doughnuts and not enough salad. I've considered on my run today giving up alcohol until after the half but that doesn't make much sense either. The key is moderation. 2 or 3 instead of 7 or 8.

generally tired this morning but nothing aches or niggles, just a general feeling of tired but not so exhausted that I can't do the workout. I still feel fast which tells me that I'm doing a lot but not over doing it. I'll be vigiliant about paying close attention to how I am feeling during the next few weeks as I am aiming for 4 quality 85 mpw weeks.

| | AM: 2 WU 2x3200 cruise intervals (10:55, 10:54) with an 800m recovery in between. 2 CD.
PM: 1 hr. pool run
Legs are pretty heavy. Felt better this morning than I did last night though so waiting a day for the workout was a good idea. Our normal workout of a steady 5 tempo was broken up today since I am doing a 4-3-2-1 workout long run on Sunday. What is that you ask? You'll find out Sunday.
I quit caring about "x many miles this/per week" this week because I need to recover. I really don't care if I hit 80 or not. This weekend will be an "exciting" one of sleeping and running. Planning on a pool run after work, not another run.
