Veyrier

Notes

Went for a long run to cap off the week, and it went great. I ran the Veyrier loop heading out on Florissant and going right by the Salève, and doing a mile in the woods there to make it a 10 mile run, and then capped the whole thing off with four strides on rue Muzy. The time for the run is partially made up, as the actual 9 mi loop took me 59min, but the piece in the woods was 7:30 and I'll assume the pace was close to the same, and then I'm adding the half mile of strides onto the run and maintaining the average.

It was a cloudy but relatively warm fall day today which was nice, and I felt really good during this run. I pressed the second half of it and did miles 6-9 averaging about 6:24's, but still felt strong and smooth. I could tell the legs were straining a little to keep the cadence up though, which is what prompted the strides at the end. All in all not a bad week easing back into the things. This coming week should have some good workouts.
