Running Log

Long Run. 10.7 miles in 1:42 or 1:43. I didn't start my watch from mile 3-4.2. Then it died after mile 7.  

4.21 miles with Mase in the stroller. This felt arduous. No pop in my legs, he felt heavy, and there was way too much talking for before 6am. Ha. Dropped him off at home and went back out. I was averaging something like 10 min miles.  

6.49 miles solo. Went through road entrance of Mitchell Park to trails and around Fox Brook Lake. I hit 3 miles and returned on the same route. I stopped once to get a pebble out of my shoe, once for traffic, and once for a quick drink. I took a Gu at 7 miles. That really helped. These miles felt like 9:00-9:30 AP. 

This is my longest run of 2016. I'll try to hit 11 or 12 miles next weekend. 

Easy run. 3.4 miles in 32 mins. 3 miles easy in 10:15, 9:30, 8:57 miles. Then 4 striders and super light yogging to finish. I was gonna try swimming laps but there were only 2 lanes open and they were already used by two women. I didn't feel like butting in. 

Tempo Run. 7.03 miles total in 59:35. 8:28 AP. 
2.03 miles easy. 9:49 and 9:35 or so. 
4 miles at tempo effort. These were slower than I was hoping for. 7:19, 7:09, 7:25, 7:11. Average 7:18. I was hoping for low 7s. I wasn't really feeling the run this morning, so it took a while to get into it. 
1 mile easy in 10:10 to end. Then drills. 

Later on at gym: 
10 min of shooting hoops
15 mins of lifting: bench, squats, lunges, bis, tris, cable flys. 
17 laps swimming

Easy run. 3 miles. 9:20 AP. 

Aborted track workout. 1.4 miles easy to track in northern Wisconsin. Drills and strides. I did a 200 and a 400 even though the track had a gravel "road" that was 2 feet high and 15 feet wide crossing the track. They were doing construction on a new football field. I was gonna still run my workout, but then, um, nature called. So I booked it back to our rental. Sad face emoji. 

Most weekly miles of 2016.
