January 12th to 18th, 2009

Another great week of training is complete and I am happy to report that my legs bounced back nicely after feeling a little fatigued last week.

Monday

Wednesday
Med-Long run, general aerobic
11 miles, 7:58/mi, 148 bpm

Thursday
General aerobic with speed
10 x 100 m pickups

Friday
Recovery
5 miles, 8:36/mi, 132 bpm

Saturday
Med-Long run
15 miles, 8:10/mi, 151 bpm

This run felt harder than it should have. My heart rate was also higher than normal, I expected it to be about 145 or so. I've been doing all my running really early in the morning when the temperature is about 40-45. For this run, I started at 10am and the temperature was 60, so that may have made the difference.

Sunday
Off

Total: 58 miles
