Nice, little interval workout on the treadmill this afternoon. Today's run included the following: 1 Mile at 7:03; 1 Mile at 6:49; and 8X800m Repeats at 3:00/repeat (6:00 pace); Including quarter-mile easy between 800m repeats, and a half-mile easy to cool-down, I ran 8.25 total miles in 56 minutes. Legs were a little heavy today after jumping right back into it this week; third day of near-race pace (or faster) running in a row after a very rare Sunday off last weekend. No excuses, right? But...work has been very demanding with increased responsibilities (a good thing), and I've come up a little short on sleep this week. Finally, I wanted to give some props to my brother, Luke, who had a nice showing in a 10-mile trail race in Virginia last weekend. The course was brutal, mostly single track, with several streams and a lot of rolling hills. Great work, bro. Looking forward to running one with you real soon. Wesley |
