Tuesday: 4.5 miles easy
Split up the run, a little run at practice then 30 minutes at night. Had (lots of) Olive Garden a few hours before and then crashed around 19 minutes, felt like crap, dizzy. Got through it after switching with James on the bike.
Wednesday: 3.5 miles easy w/ inclines
Went out with mostly down hill terrain and then rolling up hills on the way back around downtown Akron between class and had the same time splits both ways.
Thursday: 7 miles track work
1 mile warm-up and 1 mile cool down, 2-1-2 (2 miles, 3 min rest, 1 mile, 2 min rest, 2 miles)
2 mile- 15:44 (7:52, 7:52), right on target pace, ate a little too much before workout so was feeling the food on this first set
1 mile- 7:30, goal was 7:40 but felt good at this pace. James paced me the first two laps and then I kind of picked it up without much awareness. Oddly enough, this set felt the best.
2 mile- 15:42 (7:51, 7:51), felt better than the first 2 miler and got into a rhythm quick
Friday: 1 mile on cool down with team, 1250 meter swim
I love going to the pool, so refreshing on my joints!
Saturday: 7.5 miles long
60 min on roads, 15 min on trails. Body aches around 55 minutes but snapped out of it quick. For the most part felt light and smooth.
Sunday: 45 minutes on elliptical
Total: 28 miles, 1250 meters swim, 45 minutes elliptical
It felt like an up and down week during the easy runs but had another good track workout that felt controlled. Racing a mile and 5k tomorrow. A little nervous but overall excited as I like the shape that I am in right now.
