Monday: 10 miles (8:31), 3.1 miles (9:20). Started at Drakes Creek Park with a 2 mile warmup, and then 3 x (1@9:00 + 1@8:00, and then 2 mile cooldown. I was feeling pretty good after a light weekend. Averaged 8:42 on the 9:00 targeted pace and 7:54 on the 8:00 targeted. I ran medium on the cooldown (8:30,8:19) because I was going straight to Brixx after the workout and would run an easy 3.1 at Brixx to make it a half marathon Monday.
Tuesday: 7 miles (9:25). Super easy running.
Wednesday: 6 miles (9:26). Allergies continue to make my eyes sore and itchy. Seeing the Eye Doctor on Friday.
Thursday: 7 miles (9:26). Looks like my runs are consistent, last 3 runs 9:25, 9:26, 9:26.
Friday: 8 miles (8:41). 2 Mile Warmup, 15:00@7:55, 3:00@slow, 10:00@7:35, 3:00@slow, 5:00@7:15, Cooldown. This would have been easier with normal temperatures, but it was in the upper 70's.
Saturday: 4 miles (9:50).
Sunday: 9 miles (9:59). Mid 80's run starting at Kohl's trailhead and running to Wave Country and back. This was supposed to be a 16 miler, but it was just too hot for an afternoon long run.
Total Miles: 54.1 miles. I should have gone over 60 miles this week, but failed on the Sunday long run. Heading to New York City on Friday morning to run the NYC Marathon on Sunday. My only two outdoor runs beyond 14 miles in the past 5 months are the two marathons I ran (Grandmas and the Nashville Greenway), so I can't expect too much this weekend. I think I will just go out at 9:00-9:30 and see how I feel. It should be nice and cool, but since I am not in shape to go after a great marathon, it is time to just enjoy running the streets of New York.
