7 days in a row. #twit2fit

I’m pretty sure that I’ve never accomplished that before, even though I’ve run 60 miles in a week at least twice, and I’ve been running for almost 3 years now.

3.42 miles in 32′26″, for 9′30″/mile.  I did some strides at the end of my run, so my actual pace for the run (first 3 miles) was about 9′40″, and my third mile was just below a 10 minute pace.

With the strides in the last 0.42 miles, I averaged just above an 8 minute pace, and had a small burst of 6′15″ speed.

  • Tempo run 8.04 miles in 65 minutes (8'06" pace) I run my tempo and intervals on the treadmill (especially as opposed to running in th dark during rush hour). It's not optimal for training I guess, but I'd rather run the treadmill than miss another tempo or interval week. Mile point - speed (pace) 1% incline 0 - 6.2......
  • 8 miles -- 6 mile tempo in 43:05 (finish @ sub 7 pace) #running #twit2fit Progressive tempo, 6 miles. Started at 7:24 pace, finished at 6:58 pace, with a 6:28 pace kick the last 0.2 miles of the tempo. Didn't feel good going into the run (sinus infection, headache). Don't try this at home, kids. Only an insane man would do a hard workout when......
  • First successful attempt at a full running workout It's been 14 days since my last sustained running workout (over 1.25 miles).

Constant level 4 pain,......
  • I ran 15 miles at sub-9 pace the hard way #running #twit2fit (and on the treadmill at 11pm) I decided that I'd do a progressive workout, starting @ 6.0 mph (10'00") and going to 7.4 mph (8'06"?), by 0.1 mph increments per mile.  I have the speed to run 6'30" intervals, but I'm still hesitant to push for a sub-9 pace long......
