AM: 8.5 easy, 8 @ 5:40 pace, 0.5 CD

PM: foam rolling + 25 min pool run + 9 min hot tub recovery

Didn't use my auto-split which was a mistake on the downhills and in the wind. Some were apparently too fast and other miles too slow. Won't pace it like that again. A good effort though.

PM: 3 WU 8 x 3:00 min on (off 2:00) 2.8 CD

I couldn't make it to our team's workouts this week since Jenn's schedule is different this week and I rely on her for rides to the track since I have no time to drive home afterwards before work. At any rate I planned on hill circuits at Iwo after work. MCM set-up foiled that. apparently the set up pretty early. Ran to Haine's point and set up my watch intervals for 8x3:00. I was wearing my heavy Supernovas and not my light workout shoes and it was quite windy around Haines. All things considered it wasn't bad. Got the work in at a decent pace. My stomach was killing me and going to sleep was tough as well. Evening workouts suck.

Legs felt like shit this morning. That is due to lack of foam rolling, pool running. I've just run out of time to get it all in and still sleep enough to recover from it all. Hopefully I can get to it tonight. These past two weeks have been pretty heavy training wise.
