This training week was a step in the right direction! I am finally feeling strong and BALANCED which is my #1 goal in all of life besides running for the glory of God :)
Monday: 5 solid miles after work! I almost ran a 5k PR (25:40 and mine is 25:16) and got 5 miles in 42:10 (8:26/mi). My sinuses are no longer an excuse! I got a good 20 min lower body lift in when I got home.
Tuesday: Off
Wednesday: 20 min upper body in the morning. Still having sinus issues/cold and I just wanted to nip it in the bud. Upper body felt good though!
Thursday: 2.08 AM miles (9:12 pace) and 3.25 PM miles (9:05 pace) for a solid 5.3 mile day.
Friday: Couldn't sneak out of work early enough to run before leaving for an awesome friends/family weekend! Friday I ate a bit more than usual and enjoyed a bonfire and drinks with friends :) #noregrets
Saturday: 3.5 miles in 30:36 (treadmill miles on a busy, exhausting day!)
Sunday: 5 treadmill AM miles in 45:12 (9:02 pace) and then an awesome outdoor/trail 7.02 miles in 1:05:32 (9:20 pace) for a solid 12 miles! I felt awesome that I was able to get my long run in and could still make family a priority. I'm not worried that it was split up because I'll have time for a long run next weekend and also I still ran on tired legs and was less sore the next day since it was split up.
Solid 25+ miles this week and next week I'm hoping for 30 before I taper :D
