Workout log 2008/04/13 – 04/19
Monday: ran 7.2 miles at Wildwood. Felt pretty good running the first loop, decided to try pushing it a bit on the second loop. Felt strong for first mile, and then ‘pushing it a bit’ turned into close to ‘going all-out’ for the 2nd and 3rd miles, and I averaged about 6:55 for the loop. I was pretty pleased with the pace, given the hilly course. Did a mile cool-down jog and left calf was mildly sore.
Tues: jogged 1.5 miles @ LA Fitness warming up before racquetball with Mark and Ryan. Played 55 mins worth of racquetball. Mark won both games, but I was happy with my level of play.
Wed: ran 10.6 miles around Camp Hill and Harrisburg with Jon.
Thu: ran 3 loops (9.4 miles) around Wildwood. Wasn’t planning on going that far given yesterday’s run, but the weather was perfect and felt really good.
Fri: stationary bike for 30 mins very easy
Sat: ran 12 miles with Jon and Ryan at Conewago. Due to scheduling issues, we didn’t start until 1pm and it was about 80 degrees. I had huge streaks of salt on my face and shirt after the run.

Wow, what a week. Lots of miles in there.
That speed on Monday is impressive, does that change your mind at all about trying to push it at LVHM?

I’m pleased with the week, but I don’t think it changes my LVHM plan. I’m going to tuck in with the 1:40 pace group see how I feel.
