I promised myself not to take 2 rest days in a row until the last week before Boston, so I hit the treadmill and got bored. The sustained winds were 28 MPH and the dust was a little too bad for me, so I opted for the "climate controlled" environment (phrase borrowed from Smooth). AP: 8:00 Did last 1/2 mile at 9.5 MPH (6:18/mi). Maybe I'll do some Yasso 800's next time I need to run on the treadmill.

Ran a tempo run with Darin after work. We planned to run 7:30ish miles, but ended up a little faster. I ate way too much for lunch for such a fastish run. I didn't feel real well for most of the run...overall it was a pretty good run. Splits: 7:19, 7:26, 7:24, 7:29, 7:12, 7:17 Weather: 72 degrees, 12 MPH Wind NNW
AP: 7:21 HR: forgot monitor..doh! 27 days 'til Boston! Projected marathon pace: 7:40 (3:20:59)

| Ran another tempo run with Darin and Eric at lunchtime. The weather was nice. Overcast, 60 degrees, 12 MPH SE wind. When the 3 of us run together, we never know what the pace will be. I was thinking "easy 8's", but before you know it we clicked off the first mile at 7:20, and we're talking the whole time! The conversation died down around mile 3, when we saw our overall pace was about 7:22, and decided to pick it up a little. The final mile was 6:48, and I felt like I had just run a 5K race! Great workout with great friends. 7:23, 7:22, 7:24, 7:13, 7:19, 6:48 AP: 7:14 Did a few pushups afterwards, but my heart isn't into the pushup challenge. I'm going to have some fine legs, but the rest of me is...not so toned.

| Saturday was my wife's birthday. After a party at the house on Friday night, and the massive quantities of food I consumed...I wasn't much into the run, when I finally got my butt out the door to run. I had to run at least a little, to keep my promise of no more than 1 rest day in a row. It wasn't pretty, but I got in 3 measily, slow miles. I didn't even make 20 miles for the week. Not a good mileage week for me.. |
