Monday: 3 miles (9:31), 1.5 miles (9:32). Right hip flexor has been bothering me. Normally it goes away after a mile, but kept bothering me on the second run, so I stopped the run short of the 3 mile target.
Tuesday: 2 miles (9:34), .8 miles (8:28). 2 mile warmup and was planning on 4 miles of 0:30 on, 2:30 @ 9:00. Right hip flexor was still giving me issues and it was affecting the intervals, so stopped and walked it in.
Wednesday: 6 miles (9:31). Right hip flexor improving, kept the miles low.
Thursday: 4 miles (9:31). Right leg felt pretty good today.
Friday: 4 miles (9:31). More easy treadmill running.
Saturday: 2 miles (9:21), 9 miles (8:22). Original plan was to run the Races 13.1 half. I had everything in the car and was set to go at 5:30 AM, but with the rain coming down, I whimped out and went back to bed rather than sitting in the rain downtown waiting for the start. But got out to Drakes Creek Park just after 8:30 AM and thought I would try the same strategy I had planned for Races 13.1. I started with a 2 mile warmup and then then plan was 3@8:30, 3@8:25, 3@8:20, 3@8:15, 1.1@8:00. I had it on target and just before finishing the 9th mile I felt myself starting to get sick. Stopped and threw up a few times. It caught me by surprise because I wouldn't think that 9 miles at 8:22 would do that to me, but I hadn't had any calories for 5.5 hours and I was running this pretty continuous as if it was a race. Body just wasn't ready for that. So stopped at 9 miles and walked it in.
Sunday: 3 miles (10:22). 3 mile shuffle in Franklin.
Total Miles: 38.3. Pretty sad to have my lowest weekly total since Christmas week. The right hip flexor has been bothered and I took it easy a few days. Hopefully can get back at it next week.
