Monday: 6.3 miles (7:02); 9 miles (6:36)
Tuesday: 8 miles (6:34); 10.4 miles with 9 mile medium progression. Goal was three miles each at 6:15, 5:50, 5:25. Ran 18:34 (6:07, 6:13, 6:14), 17:16 (5:45, 5:46, 5:45), 16:14 (5:27, 5:22, 5:25). Hit the times pretty well my it felt like I was running faster than I was...it wasn't particularly hard, it just felt like I was flying and my quads were pretty tired. Afterwards, my quads were really worn out the rest of the night.
Wednesday: No running. Spent all day travelling. Like over 16 hours and I still have a six hour drive tomorrow.
Thursday: 3.3 miles (8:08). Would have liked more but I was supposed to drive to Tamarindo early in the morning and four hours later, I finally left. Ran within five minutes of arriving.
Friday: 4 miles with strides
Saturday: 13.6 miles with Tamarindo Beach Half-Marathon in 70:46. Warmed up with Tibor for a half mile literally over 11 minute pace. Had to get an early spot on the line, so I didn't do anything else, or cooldown. Race went well. Hung with the pack through the halfway point and at the turnaround, took the lead and kept it steady for a smooth win. Super humid but pleased with the time because this felt closer to a 72-72.
Week Total: 54.6 miles. About 50% of what would be ideal but I had a ton of travelling to do, which killed my volume. Fun but tiring week. Deena is insane.
