MT W14 Results

My running for this week was all loaded in the front end.  We have had plans for a couple of months, no guilt for not running this weekend!

Sunday:  Rest Day
Result:  I woke up bright and early, feeling pretty stiff from Saturday's 22 miler.  I decided to go for a walk, hoping to loosen up a bit.  It really did help.  3.06 miles in 50:16, 16:27 pace.

Monday: 7 Miles Easy (Pace 9:52)
Result:  7.07 miles in 1:26:51, 12:17 pace.
I was still a little sore and knew I wouldn't be fast, so I headed for hills.  I was pleasantly surprised to see my pace drop as low as 8:57, even if I couldn't hold it there for long.

Tuesday:  9 Miles w/5 Miles @ Tempo
Result: 8.75 miles in 1:46:01, 12:07 pace
I started off feeling good, picked up the pace, ran mile 3 in 9:48 and mile 4 in 9:28.  At about mile 5 my left knee started hurting.  From then on I did a mix of walking and running. 

Wednesday:  6 Miles Easy (Pace 9:52)
Result:  I realized that I hadn't take a day off in a week.  No wonder I was hurting on Tuesday!  I took the day off, saying No to injuries.

Thursday: 8 Miles Easy (Pace 9:52)
Result:  13.1 miles in 2:05:10, 9:33 pace
I decided to turn this into a my LSD for the week.  Pushed it the entire time!  My fastest long run to date.

Result:  Spent the day at the San Diego Zoo.  I have no idea how far we walked, but 7+ hours on my feet was plenty. We did hill repeats on Monkey Trail... at least it felt that way!

Saturday: Rest
Result:  Another beautiful day in San Diego - I'm not sure what's on the agenda.
