Sun-off
Mon- 1:03:30 (8.2) w/Ike
I am going to start running Ike's long days with him because besides the Ottawa Half, this was my first hour+ run since April 3rd. It is only the 4th this year.
Tues-36:55 (5.0)
This was a bit of a fartlek as I worked in 6x150-160m strides on the half mile starting at mile one. My rough guess would put them at low six minute pace, fast enough for me.
Wed- 45:09 (6.0)
I don't know how I got talked into this one, but we ran at 2:45 in 90 degree heat and humidity. We stopped three times, twice for water and I was still a hurtin' unit. I don't know how we managed to avg 7:30s.
Thurs- meant to run 7 with Ike this evening but the heat index was still above 100 degrees at 6:30 so I bailed. I don't know how Ike did it.
Fri- 57:23 (7.2)
I still wanted that 7mi, but I was running by 6:30am to beat the heat and this one was rough
Sat- 37:43 (5.0)
Ran early again and wanted another set of strides for the week so I ran 6x100m after the run. I used the Garmin and calculated a pace for the strides around 5:20/mi which is a little better.
Not a bad week. Almost 32 miles (4hr3min) with an avg HR of 142 and an avg pace of 7:38/mi. I was thinking about running the Seaway Fest 4 Miler, but I don't think I am quite ready and I have been having some issues with my left quad in the last few days, some tightness that I need to work out. Besides Jeff called and says they are running tomorrow morning and I think that that is probably better for me right now anyway.
