Monday: 3 miles (9:22), 7 miles (9:05). Quick 3 mile treadmill run at lunch time. Could feel a little stiff from yesterday's long run. Felt better on the Brixx Run, even though it was about 90 degrees. Ran the 7 miles with 25 second pickups each mile.
Tuesday: 3 miles (9:13), 5 miles (8:12), 1 mile (9:22). After a 3 mile warmup, ran 4 x (1 mile @ sub 8:00 + 1/4 mile @ slow jog, then a cooldown. With it being so hot out, ran on the treadmill. The 4 miles were at 7:53, 7:47, 7:41, 7:35. Felt pretty smooth.
Wednesday: 10 miles (8:45). Progression, 3@9:00, 3@8:45, 3@8:30, 1@Cooldown.
Thursday: 3 miles (9:13), 3 miles (9:13). Short TM run at lunch time. Quads sore today. Tough to run the second time after we took our cat Manny to the vet and ended up having him put to sleep after his kidneys started failing. He was nearing 16 years old, which is quite old for a maine coon.
Friday: 2 miles (9:13). Short treadmill run before the long travel day to Napa, California.
Saturday: 5 miles (9:13). Treadmill run at the Westin Napa Fitness center in the afternoon.
Sunday: 13.13 miles (8:47). Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon. Official time was 2:05:04, as I stopped the GPS at the water breaks and took short breaks like I was on a training run. GPS time was 1:55:17. This was the first time I ever ran outdoors with headphones on and I have to say I loved it. I looked at the watch a lot less and wasn't counting down the miles, but enjoying some music.
Total Miles: 55.1 miles. Not the volume I want and I probably won't get it next week with two more days in Napa. But after that, I should get back to 65-75 mile weeks.
