Today was another big workout, our second this week. We did 6x1mile at race pace (race effort) on Foothills Park (a very hilly and grassy field) with 3 mins recovery. My splits were as follows: 5:06, 5:04, 4:59, 4:58, 4:58, 4:57. I was very happy with this, mainly since this course is very slow, at least 15-20 seconds per mile slower than a flat, harder surfaced course. I am starting to feel really good. This last week may have been the best week of training of my whole life. Throughout this season, I have had some bumps and ups and downs with training consistency and training level, but this week was great! These next few races are the real important ones, so I feel like I am starting to roll at the right time. |
