February 23 - March 1 Training

Monday: 3 miles (9:41), 5 miles (9:36).
Tuesday: 12 miles (8:57).  2 mile warm up, 2 x (2 miles uphill, 2 miles down hill, 1/2 mile slow jog), 1 mile cool down.  Ran the hill from SCHS up Saundersville Road.
Wednesday: 5 miles (9:52).
Thursday: 9 miles (8:58), 1 mile (10:30).  Ran the Boomer Route starting with some easy miles to start and then picking up the pace and trying to hammer down the last two miles down hill.  Slow cool down afterwards.
Friday: 3 miles (9:41), 4 miles (9:52).
Saturday: 20 miles (9:45).  I crashed and burned on this one with 6 miles to go.  Didn't take any fuel during the run and no water until I finished 9 miles and had 10:18 pace the last 6 miles. But at least I was able to push through and get the full 20 miles in.
Sunday: 6 miles (9:36).

Total miles: 68 miles (9:30).  Another climb in mileage this week with a couple tough runs on Tuesday and Thursday, which may have depleted my energy level for Saturday's long run.  Should be cutting back this next week so I can have a good Tom King Half Marathon this coming Saturday.
