Mon- Did a 4 mile run in about 35 minutes. felt pretty good after last week’s 12 miles. Managed not to wipe out this time at least!
Tuesday- Ran with Scott from the Triathlon team. It was a blustery evening at Schollenberger park. We did the first 2 miles at an easy 10 minute mile pace, then ran along the river to the Sheraton and back and finished the loop again. Total time 56 minutes for 6 miles. Good run
Thursday – I left an open bar and steak barbeque to go do my track workout. The highlight of the night was 10 reps of a minute sprint and 30 second recovery. Of course we did the lunges, and butt kicks and grapevines with a mile warmup. We finished the night with core-building excercises like planks and, pushups. Needless to say, I had worked up my appetite by the time I got back to the barbeque!
Saturday- Had a great trail run at the Point Reyes National Seashore. I was expecting a 14 mile day but was pleasantly surprised to get a slight reprieve. We did 9 miles. 4.5 miles out to Arch Rock and back. I lost track of time, but this year, I ran more than I did the year prior on the rolling hills. The next day I noticed my ankles were sore for the first time. I attributed that to uneaven trail.
Weekly total 22 miles
Total to date 142 miles
9 weeks to Race Day….
