Today my goal was to keep each mile around 8:30, or atleast average that for the run. My legs felt better today until I hit that last mile and then they seemed to lose thier strength, other than the one mile that I ran faster then the other seven I didn't feel like I was pushing it. My foot is still bothering me, in my right arch area it is sore after I run and then for the first half mile mile until it gets loosened up. Today it hurt during the middle of the run too, which is a concern, I will continue to ice. My splits went as follows; 8:26(163), 8:12(147), 8:21(143), 8:27(148), 8:23(145), 8:43( 145), 8:37(148), 8:39(144). My average pace was 8:29 with an average heart rateof 147, total time was 1:07:53. I haven't tackled Harry Davis Hill for awhile but that is my goal this week, tomorrow I will do a recovery run and take it easy and then Thursday is the day, so we shall see.
I also did some core strength training, 200 crunches with 75 push-ups, all the crunches were done in sets of 50 on the rubber ball.
See ya tomorrow.
