Another pretty good week of training. Most of my runs have been a little faster than I have wanted them to be but I try not look at my watch and just go by how I am feeling. I have felt really good and am ready to get in another race this weekend hopefully.
Monday - 7+ (46:56)
Tuesday - off (test and HW due Wednesday just ran out of time.)
Wednesday - 8 (56:08)
Nice easy run
Thursday -8.25 (55:00)
Little faster easy run.
Friday - 11 (1:13:45)
Nice paced long run.
Saturday - AM 6.5 (56:50) Ran with a couple of girls that are running Fargo in two weeks. It was slow and it hurt but it was a nice easy recovery run. I don't honestly know if I have ever run 6.5 miles that slow, but it was good.
Saturday - AM - 35 miles bike race (1:20:00ish)
Not really sure on the time but I think it was around that . I have not really raced or rode my bicycle in almost two years so it was good to know that I could still hold my own with some of the guys that race and ride all the time. 8th place overall I think.
Sunday - 9.25 (1:03:00)
Easy run to finish off the week.
Week total: 50 miles
MTD: 145
Well it was an easy beginning of the week and a busy finish to the week. The last three days I really thought were going to take it out of me but surprisingly i felt really good in Sunday. I had no soreness in by legs at all from the bike race and felt great during the bike race even though I ran that morning before and went long the day before. So all in all it was a great effort on the week and I am looking forward o possibly racing this week again. If I do race this coming weekend it is going to be a 5k so we shall see how that goes. Goal time is below 16:30 which I am pretty sure that I can do if the weather is decent. I think the fastest that I could go right now is maybe 16:20 but even that might be a stretch for only a month of running, not even 200 miles, and no speed work at all. I felt really good during that 3k last week so I think that it can be done.
