Good morning! Let’s begin by speaking about Saturday’s run.
This was the exercise sandwiched with a w/u and c/d:
2 miles of – 800m @ 10k tempo, 800 float (aka not simple however not too laborious)
2 miles of – 400m @ 5k tempo, 400 float
2 miles of – 200m @ mile tempo, 200 float
Whole of 15 miles @ 7:26 common.
The float tempo rapidly become a restoration jogging tempo, however my coach mentioned beforehand that was okay. My paces for the intervals weren’t that totally different as a result of my legs are nonetheless in marathon mode, however I’m excited to search out quicker turnover with some work!
Total, it was a troublesome exercise for me. It included lavatory stops and frustration as a result of it felt so laborious when it was a a lot shorter exercise than what I used to be doing a month or two in the past. However I felt like one million bucks as soon as I completed as a result of that’s what velocity exercises do for me.
Monday’s run was a very good one:
Contemporary flowers had been EVERYWHERE! 8.68 miles @ 8:42 common and I completed with 4 x 30 second hill sprints. My legs burned so good.

We realized how you can appropriately costume her for the loopy winter we had, and this lady liked going to highschool the place she is her happiest–> exterior.
Let’s get into some tangents!
