Weekly Summary 8/26 to 9/1/2012

8/26  Sunday - 12.3 miles/11 running
AM - cont long run of 9 miles with gregg on bike path and trails, avg 11:17 pace, good for me, felt easy at start and got harder at end.  I guess thats the way a longer fast run is supposed to be.  PM- ran 2 miles in a heavy downpour, FUN!!!

8/27   Monday - 8 miles/ 3.6  running - recovery day
Tired.

8/28   Tuesday - 6 miles/ 4.2 running
AM - 4 miles + cont run w/ gregg - okay, 12:26 to 10:48 mile splits, good progressive

8/29   Wednesday - 8.3 miles/ 5.4 running - trying to make this day a short speed pickup day, prefer hills if feet can take it
am- hilly route with 5 x 1 min fast w/ 1 min walks

8/30   Thur - 10 miles/ 6 running
AM - bike path medium to tempo efforts. warm-up 1.7M in 18:48@131 + 3:24 rest walk + 2M in 20:29 @ 144hr.   PM ran early to get back to mow yard before issac arrives

8/31   Friday - 4  miles/ 3.1  running - recovery
AM - ran all of Komen loop at whatever effort I felt like (33:51@136)
PM-rest

9/1  Saturday - 6.2 miles/ 3.6 running
AM- BP loop in 33:40@135hr + 5x .1M speedwork in 49, 47,45,46 w/walk back in 2-2:30.  this felt very good, smooth, relaxed form, never hard, best my legs and ankles felt for this type runs in a long, long time.  we'll see how feel later.

This week I took a couple PM off.  With more cont runs I've been feeling a little more tired.  I'm getting ready for a 10 mile run on Monday so want to feel a little freasher.

Weekly totals = 55  miles/ 35.7 running

August month totals = 283 miles/173.4 running

HUGE month for me, most in a long, long time....I must admit, its too much, but this is the actions of an addicted runner.

ONE week till the mountains!!

  1. You need to be more consistent in reporting your paces and heart rates for all of your runs. Inquiring readers want to know!

  2. my hr and paces are pretty skewed by the many walking breaks I do....the more cont runs are easier to get an idea of hr to pace...I continue to search for the answer to why my hr is so low when I'm running a hard effort
