Summery Sunday (Read 31 times)

    It looks like it's going to be hot next weekend for my half.

     

    Maybe they will take mercy on you and the course will only be 12.5 miles.

      Here's a summery of my Sunday: 16 miles with last 8 slightly faster than GMP. It felt much harder than marathon effort. Probably did not help that I just had a really hard workout on Friday. Blerg.

       

      71 for the week.

       

      I need more than 1 easy day between hard workouts.

        Addie actually gave me a nice taper for it but if the overnight low is 64, does it even pay to cut back for it?

            Yep, I ran up and down a hill today. They had closed a one mile long stretch of road to cars, so just bikes and a few runners were going up and down.

             

            About 14 miles, and 63 for the week.

              Ran 15 instead of the 18 I was supposed to do. Legs are trashed so meh. Not too horrid at the gym but I think I need to start slower on that TM.

               

              Lauren, nice job on the race. Hugs to the rest!

                Apparently I do too. Although I nailed both, today was harder than it should've been. Waiting for your "I told you so" that this plan is tougher than I thought. Four weeks to go, so I should be peaking I guess.

                 

                For your half: I'd say if you are running it, take Addie's taper, go all out, & see what happens. Although of course I had a bad experience with a HM >60 DP a couple weeks ago.
