Easy 8 tonight at the club. Able to commandeer my own fan tonight, so the relatively warm temperature was not as much of an issue. Jus kinda cruised at something like 9:10 pace. No muss, no fuss.
I'm kinda reassessing my training approach for Newport. Emphasize miles over speed, or combine miles AND speed, or back off on the miles and stress speed? The miles/speed combination worked well for me for Memphis, but it also carries the highest risk of injury and/or burnout. I think for now I'll keep doing what I'm doing, but be hypervigilant for signs that I can't maintain the program. Good news is that the base building ends in a couple of weeks, then it switches to more speed-oriented work (although still plenty of miles). |
