Week 3 goals were all met! The week could not have went better! More sleep on days I did not have to wake up early to run. Had the best long run of my training (16 miles in 7:40 pace). Weekly mileage was a little lower than goal but was up 6 miles from last week (55miles). Introduced the first LT run, I was ok with the workout but not thrilled. My LT run consisted of 9 miles with 4 miles at LT pace (10k- 1/2 marathon pace). I ran 2 miles as a warmup and immediately started into my LT pace at 2 miles. I hit 6:39 pace for my 4 LT miles. (I will take it but it needs to be closer to 6:25). Then 3 miles as a cool down at average pace (7:30ish). Great Week!!
Week 4 - Disaster!!
As you can see by the date of this post that week 4 goals should have been posted 4 days ago. I actually got sick on January 1st at night. No, it is not due to the night before. There were no hangovers here :) It took me down pretty hard and I was either in my bed or on the couch for at least 36 hrs. I have missed my runs Mon - Thurs this week. I still have a lot of muscle fatigue from it but will get back to it today. The only goal for week 4 at this point is to salvage the week the best I can.
Fri Jan 6 - 7 miles
Sat Jan 7 - 18 miles
Sun Jan 8 - 5 miles
Weekly mileage - 30
