OK....

Guess I must still be feeling it because it felt like we were hammering the 8.4 mile loop today...crushed the big hill but only came in @ 57:0 for 6:47s.

Great weather outside...long sleeve...single layer...

Legs feel ok...watching strain in right groan....monitoring...

back on track...

15.44 in the books ....1:46:11

6:55ish pace which surprises me because I thought I was cruising parts and really didn't feel uncomfortable until the last mile which was mostly downhill.

Oh well...got the long one the books which gives me 61+ for the week on 5 days, and 7 runs.

easy day...

had hoped/thought of running further but ran out of time and body really didn't feel quite up to it....

ran 6.5 for 44:22....legs felt chipper toward the end but achilles still store. It's actually the upper portion so more of the soleus/gastroc...may just be a slight strain.

OK for the 2nd Run of the Day

backed it off the last 1.5 miles to a snail pace....ran 8.36 @ 56:45 for 6:47s. Felt smooth in sections and new we were moving...felt solid...but right achilles was sore during the last 2 miles so I backed off.

Soooooo

Monday 12ish (5+7+)
Tuesday 12.75
Wednesday 16ish (7+8.36)

Gives me 40 on 3 days....5 runs

Early Morning Rock N' Rolling...

Obviously based on my run this morning the 12.75 in the snow had little impact on my run.

Total of 7 miles...

1st 1.12 @ 7:08 as warm up

Next 2 miles @ 6:18

Next 2 miles @ 6:00 (last appprox 3/4 I ran @ 5:52 pace)

2 mile cool down @ 6:58

The fast two miles was OK....toward the end I was maxing it...but think it was because nature was calling (oops)...and then jumped back on to cool down the final 2 miles which felt like a snail pace.

See what i come back with this afternon.
