PM road 4, 30:00
Tuesday AM 4.2 with Melissa and Uta, 32:23
PM in hard cold rain, poor footing, 3 mile warm up, drills, strides, Mona Fartlek- 3.65 miles- about as short as I have ever done. I was pretty tired and I'm pretty out of shape and it was not nice out there so I wasn't too bothered by that. 1.4 mile cool down, really 1.4 miles of getting freezing trying to get back to the house as I was soaked to the bone and it was about 35 degrees.
Mona rates this fartlek a very un-impressed but at least you got it done.
Wednesday PM raliegh tavern 10 mile with Uta, 1:09:32, crazy tired even though I skipped the AM run
Thursday PM 3.5 mile warm up with Uta, felt like death warmed over, so I decided to scrap the workout
Friday Off stomach bug
Saturday AM 2 warm up with Melissa and Anna in Boston, drills 6x mile(full miles on 220yd track), at Harvard with 3mins recoveries including drills, started with 4x200, first 3 with Melissa in 39 then one solo in 34. Miles were 4:59, 5:00.0, 4:58, 4:58, 4:58, 4:58, about a half mile jogging with Melissa and Anna, bit of stretching then 3 miles solo.
Working out today was not ideal but I had already missed my Thursday session and I knew I was too weak after yesterday for the 4x2 mile I had scheduled. Also with our forecast, snow, I knew that this would be my only shot at a workout over the weekend. I'll obviously switch out the mile repeats on Thursday this week.
Sunday AM snow removal
Noon 13 miles, slowly. First 8 with Melissa and Uta, very slow. Footing was not great, 1:39:41
PM bikram yoga, 90mins hot yoga. It was really nice to be too hot after 2 hours of very cold snow removal and an 1:40 minutes of running in temps that had only come up to about 18 degrees.
Summary only about 67 miles this week but given how poorly I felt and getting sick I'm not bothered by that at all. I was very happy to get in two workouts and I was suprised that I was able to do the 6x mile without leaving sort of a tempo/controlled effort. So given everything I'm pretty happy. I'm not happy I got sick and I feel run down. I may just not be fit enough to train like this yet. I'll get a better sense this week and I'll adjust from there.
Hope your training is going well.
