I can't believe how quickly the last two weeks have gone by. I really meant to do a recap for week 6 but work started up and there went my time to do anything. I can't get over how often some people blog? Please give me hints on how you make the time? By the time I get home it is time to run, shower, and go to bed!
I am going to make this post short because I am still hopeful the lightning and thunder will stop here and I can get my run in. If not, at least I will have blogged and todays run will be moved to tomorrow! I am not going to lie, I do think my legs need an extra rest day but will get to that later.
I am linking up with Meghan and Kat this week for their Weekly Workout Roundup!
Week 6
Monday 8/5: 5.24 miles 1.5 in 18 minutes then 3.71 @ 11:19 pace and
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday 8/7 3.7 @ 11:41 pace Tempo run (Tempo at 11:57)
Thursday 8/8 planned for 7 but slept in :(
Friday Rest Day
Saturday 8/10 Christa's Graduation run 14 miles of bridges. 12:17 pace- this was pretty good minus except for the terrible stomach ache and therefore had to walk more than I would have liked

Christa's graduation with Christa, Coach Lyle, me, and Coach Teresa
Week 7:
monday 8/12: 4.06 miles @ 11:34 pace
Tuesday Rest day
Wednesday 8/14 7 @ 12:25 pace. This run I am not sure how to describe. Work started monday and I came home and took a 2 hour nap. This was incredibly hard but I did not stop at all to walk. The pace would just not GO!
Thursday 8/15 6 mile progression run 11:29 pace- felt good for the most part. Used the last mile as a cool down and the first mile I just couldn't slow down. I got the miles in :)
Saturday 8/17 16 miles @ 12:45 pace. This run went pretty well. We walked about a mile because who I was running with wanted to walk to I took the brake with them!Some felt great and some felt hard.
I have noticed this whole week my legs were so sore. I went in Saturday with sore legs which is beneficial come race day but made running 16 pretty annoying. I also don't have a working ipod.
Those were my last two weeks and tomorrow my students come! I am really excited to enlighten a whole new bunch of students. I am hoping to be as productive as possible during the school day so I can leave on time to run. Waking up at 4:45 doesn't leave much time in the evenings to get everything done. I am proud that I got all my runs in last week. I am thinking my body is so sore because it is actually following a training schedule! |

For all you bloggers, how do you stick to a blogging schedule?
What did you do this week that made you proud of yourself?
What songs should I add to my hopefully new ipod ??
