A couple of days have gone by without an update, but I'm staying on top of it!
Tuesday: Rest
I actually wanted to run, so that's a good sign. For once, I didn't absolutely need the day off.
Wednesday:
AM: 4 miles, easy. High 30's, aka cold! My experiment with the Brooks T6 Racers continued. My feet hurt a bit at the end, but I think it was because they were cold, and not really because of the shoes. They still felt great to run in. Overall, I felt good.
PM: 10.5 miles total, 7.5 miles @ tempo pace: 42:16 overall, 5:38/mile pace. Low 50s, windy. This was my last tempo run of this length. Starting next week I cut back, and not a moment too soon! Though I felt really good on this run (better than I have in a while), I don't have very many of these efforts left in me for this training cycle. Splits (~1.5 miles):
8:44; 8:25; 8:10; 8:20; 8:36
Thursday:
AM: 6 miles, easy/moderate. High 40s, and steady rain. Run felt pretty good.
PM: 13 miles, easy/moderate. Low 50s, rain. I got a bit hungry during the run, an issue with running this far after work, but I sucked it up and had a pretty good run overall. The cool/rainy weather did a number on my legs, and I felt a bit tight and sore afterward, especially my left leg. Hopefully, this is not the return of the on-again-off-again issues I've been having with it since May.
