Out of bed at 4:50 am for a 10-miler, only to be turned back at the front door by thunder and lightning all over the morning sky. But thankfully, I caught a break in the rain following Sunday School. I sloshed through 10.5 Miles (shoes soaked by Mile 3) at 6:56/mile. Pretty good effort considering the conditions. Wesley

12.5 Miles on treadmill set to 1.0. Today's run included the following: 2 Miles at 7:30/mile; 6 Miles at 6:40/mile (MP); 1.5 Miles at 6:31/mile; 0.25 mile easy jog; 2.0 Miles at 7:30/mile; and 0.75 mile easy jog. I was a little disappointed that I had to shut it down a half-mile early at the 6:31 pace; my goal was 8 solid, MP/Tempo miles, but my energy level isn't where it needs to be. I think it's a combination of improper fueling and a lack of sleep, but I rationalized you train to race rather than race to train. Wesley

8 Miles in 56:00 on treadmill set to 1.0 incline. Today's run included the following:
2-mile warm-up at 7:30/mile;
3 Miles at 6:58/mile;
2 Miles at 6:40/mile (MP); and
1 Mile at 6:18.
Felt good today despite some hard miles on low energy yesterday.

6 Miles Easy in my neighborhood on a nice, clear morning with a light breeze. Included six 30-45 second striders during last two miles.

| 5 Miles Easy after my son's final soccer game of the summer. Threw in six striders during the final mile and a half. I was planning to take the day off, then reconsidered, and I thought I would try a little active recovery after yesterday's speed work. Also hit 50 miles for the week. Ultimately, I'm working toward 60 miles/week as base mileage. Wesley |
