So Long Sundailies (Read 29 times)

Half Crazy K 2.0


    So long to my favorite race management company. I had suspected something was up because their events were cross posted on the LRS website. They are now part of that group. Darn it. I really liked their efficiency.

     

    6 miles, 5k race. Thought this course would easier than the previous one. Lol it was harder. Nice cliff in the middle.

      I jogged 6.

       

      Wondering if the last two race results will inspire Usain Bolt to give 2020 a go.

          15 or so. Over 55 for the comeback week. Don't necessarily want to go higher for now. Just keep the volume around 50-60 and add reps and time to my intervals sessions.

            'Morning!  Wife had a bike ride to do and I tagged along.  60 miles done.  Going out to stuff my fat face now.

             

            For the week:

             

            Swim:  6.8 miles

            Bike:  149 miles

            Run:  25.4 miles

             

            15 hours, 36 minutes.  A good week!

              What I thought would be 13.2 turned into 14.25, and not because I got lost.  Can't figure out how that happened.  It was nice to jump into the ocean after what was a very long and hot run almost completely devoid of shade.

                  No more marathons

                    Ciao altri corridori

                    I managed to get a second run in while in Florence.

                    This was a group of three runs while I ran some errands - total was about 4.5 miles.

                    Early train to Venice tomorrow so no run.

                    Lordy,  I hope there are tapes. 

                    He's a leaker!

                        Ouch! That is quite a workout!

                          I jogged 6.

                           

                           

                          +1.

                           

                          10k in 43:59. I suck. Warning: splits are not for the faint of heart. There were some stupid hills I could not really recover from. Pretty big race, so not much chance at AG placing anyway. Bleh.

                           

                          However: for a ~1500-person race, in a congested area near downtown Seattle, I got a parking spot right across the street from the finish line. And a post-race French toast buffet for all runners. So I'm gonna call the day a win.

                            Considering I had a 48 second differential between miles 1 and 2 in a 5k, your splits look fine to me. Also due to big ass hill.
