Wednesday: 10 AM - 10 easy - Was hoping to get back to getting a quality run in today, but I guess I'm still just feeling drained from my cold. Felt awful, gonna take the afternoon off.
Total - 10
Thursday: 11 AM - 18 quality - Felt rested and back to normal. This was really more like a long tempo, at about 95% MP (5:45/5:50 pace avg.)
6 PM - 10 easy - abs, hamstring curls - I plan on getting back to the core routine tomorrow.
Total - 28
Friday: 11 AM - 12 quality - Legs were feeling it a bit from yesterday.
6 PM - 10 easy, w/ 4 sets of diaganols (Kenyan style, stride the diaganol of a football/soccer field, jog across the goal line, stride back down the other diagnol, and jog back to the starting point for a set)
Total - 22
Saturday: 11 AM - 12 quality - Felt better.
9 PM - 9 easy - abs, hamstring curls - I remembered at 4 p.m. an assignment that I had due for my law journal. 5 hours later...I was out the door for run number two...on which I was attacked by a dog. He was being sort of playful I guess, because though he bit me, it wasn't that hard. But still, it was more playful than I wanted to be. Eventually, I clipped him in the jaw with my heel on the back-kick (this has worked for me in the past), and he backed off.
Total - 21
Sunday: 10 AM - 22 quality - Felt OK, though a strong headwind got to me a bit on the way back. Also got dumped on by the rain for a while...to be expected.
6 PM - 4 easy - abs, hamstring curls
Total - 26
Summary: 150 miles, 5x abs, 5x hamstring curls
Overall a pretty good week. I got over being sick finally by about Thursday and got some good quality runs in later in the week. The one thing I didn't get back to quite yet was the core routine. I was sick early and my legs were pretty dead later in the week and I had some late at night runs. This is something I need to get back to now. I'm traveling to Belgium this week and Oslo, Norway next week, so I probably won't be quite as high mileage the next two weeks.
