Weekly Summary - 7/8 to 7/14/2012

7/8    Sunday -  10.5 miles/ 3 running -AM - just walking; PM - HUMID w/ gregg tired

7/9    Monday - 10 miles/ 6 running -AM- 5M trail w/ Gregg in 57:17PM - komen loop my run is getting a little faster (Boy, the trail is getting raped of trees...hope the doers are happy)


7/10   Tuesday - 10.3 miles/ 6 running -PM komen 5W/5R

7/11   Wednesday - 7 miles/ 4 running - a little tired today; PM - 1.25M walk at 15% incline for 1000' elev. gain

7/12   Thur - 10.5  miles/ 5.5 running - AM bike path run 1.7M in 17:41 @ 132HR + 2m in 19:32 @ 147HR - surprised was this fast 'cause felt tired, no pep in legs.....PM- Buffalo run - enjoyed just walking and talking with folks....no shade anymore at Goat Mt....did run 1.5 M in 15:26@ 142.
Interesting fitness condition with my lowest heart beats per mile of 1371 this morning for 1.7M tempo.  Can it be called a tempo if HR is only 132???.....but my legs/body does not feel like going any harder

NOTE:  Last MRT at Mettler today.

7/13   Friday - 7.5 miles/ 2  running - AM - run about around town - easy 10W/5R;  PM - Fittek 2000' elev gain - 2.5 miles at 15% incline in 60 mins....I think the steep inclines are making the legs have a flat feeling but gives me a strong aerobic workout

7/14   Saturday - 15.1 miles/ 10 running - crazy to do this in the heat, BUT  I only did one hour outside then 1 hour at Fittek in cool AC.  Komen at 6PM at 5W/5R pattern easy then walk dogs 2 miles.

Weekly totals = 70.4 miles/ 36.5 running

Another hot week, mostly upper 80's to low 90's......this is the time of year where I am soaked in sweat after every run, even only 3 miles....oh well, nothing to do but keep going and not worry about pace and know that cooler weather in the fall could produce some good fitness to try a couple trail races.......Hot running can make one feel like they can never run very fast or well.....going to Fittek continues to help me feel better about my actual fitness level.
