Hip was a little sore from saturday, but everything else felt fine. I got 4 miles in. then did 6x 400m uphill with every 3rd downhill.
1 - 6:18, 2 - 6:07, 3 - 5:36, 4- 6:12, 5, 6:08, 6 - 5:29.
I came home wanting to finish on the treadmill, and ended up getting thrown up on by my 2 year old. Poor little guy:( That cut my workout short. | |

Club run tonight = ouch. i felt tired and just couldn't push my miles faster. The whole thing was a decent pace. first mile was an 8:15, miles 2-5were 6:50 average, and then, 6-9 were 6:23 average. Again, i'm having issues getting my feet to turn over faster - I was running faster times than this earlier in the season, but we also would run the beginning miles slower. so maybe that is it. I just want to see a few 6:05s or 6:15s even. on my speed run tomorrow i'm going to make sure i hit those.
zumba class in the evening - i took it really easy | |

I wanted to meet up the guys for a club run, but was up til 2 making my 5 year old's b-day spiderman cake. He is so worth it. i love the little guy:)
So I had to run less miles than i wanted, and got 14 in. I started at the highway, then ran down 5 miles, up 5. and then back down 4. During the last 4 miles, I stopped looking at my watch and tried to get some marathon pace miles in. i wanted to see how fast i'd run without my watch. apparantly not as fast as i wanted - last 4 were 6:30 (with uphill), 6:38 (more uphillL), 6:24, 6:43 (more flat and uphill). i wasn't pushing super fast, i just did a pace that felt do-able (but you always run faster in a race right?). I need to get a good speed run in for my confidence!
On a side note, it is sooo hard to taper. I think it's my least favorite part. | |
