Insanity Cardio Power and Resistance + 4 mile shake out

Obviously felt pretty crap - been on a plane and awake for 24 hours, but I needed to get my body moving somehow... I know sleep will be a lot better.

Med-long run tomorrow to make up for the day off on Saturday...

Was planning on a long run yesterday, but got hit with the plague while in Aus (just a bad head cold).... combined with jet lag, I had a rare day where I just couldnt physically make myself run.

Today, legs felt fresh (though head and throat still awful) and ran about 8:00 pace. Had to hold myself back a bit... maybe I need a few more workouts in this plan!

Easy miles around Central Park and Bridle Trail, around 8:20 avg pace. Felt ok; still pretty stuffy from cold; hacking up a storm along the way was not fun. Looking forward to putting in some HM and MP miles when Im feeling a bit more up for it.

Very easy treadmill miles, starting at 9:45 (inspired to run slow by Jake) but then got bored, so moved up to 8:30 then last mile progressing down to marathon pace (7:20).

I am constantly in awe of how hard marathon pace feels, when you know you'll be able to bust it out in your goal race for 26.2 miles. The magic of training. I totally think its magic.
