Recovery week #2

I didn’t do my speed work last week because I was skiing Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, so I started this week off with a short version of speed work even though this is  my recovery week. 

2 mile mile warm up

3 x 1 mile at 5:56 pace with 1/2 mile recovery 

Total 7 miles 

This seemed more difficult than it should have but I guess that is what happens when you ski hard, eat horribly and sleep poorly for a few days. Now I can spend the rest of the week really recovering and getting my body and mind ready for my final 3 week training block before taper begins.

11 very slow but not so easy miles...AP 9:25

My legs are still crazy tired from my ski trip.  Good thing I'm on a recovery week. I really need it.

I decided to maximize my recovery week and just hot tub this morning instead of any exercise. It felt nice.

Like my last recovery week I finished this one up with some mp repeats. 

1 mile warm up

4 x 3 miles at mp with 1/2 mile recovery jogs

Total 15 miles 

Legs felt great. I’m ready to take on my final 3 week training block.
