Week 13 (4/13 - 4/19) - 117 miles:
Just one workout this week, but a good one o Wednesday.
Q1 - Intended workout was 4-3-2-1, but I felt on the edge halfway through the "2" so I changed it a little and did 4-3-1.5-3x0.5.
4 miles - 21:10.8 (5:17.7 average)
4min rest
3 miles - 15:42.9 (5:14.3 average)
3 min rest
1.5 miles - 7:44.2 (5:15.8 average)
1 min rest
3x800 @ 2:29-2:30 (60s rest after each)
Week 14 (4/20 - 4/27) - 69 miles
Two hard sessions this week. First one went well and second was slightly below expectations. Unfortunately the 2nd one was way more important.
Q1: (Monday) - 4 mile progression/tempo/tuneup in 5:15 - 5:12 - 5:10 - 5:06. Felt good and ready to roll.
Q2: (Saturday) - Country Music (RnR) Half-Marathon in 68:53 - 2nd place.
I am going to hold off on posting a race report for the Country Music half for a couple of weeks since I think it would be more valuable to post a "what did I do wrong?" along with it. Luckily I have the USA 25K champs in Grand Rapids, Michigan coming up in a little over a week (Saturday 5/9) so I can try to make some of those adjustments and see how it works out. So for the 5 people or so that actually read the blog my apologies for making you wait, but at least you should get to read 2 race reports in mid May. In the meantime one of my reader's requested a more detailed breakdown of my weeks so I'll try to get that up in the next few days.
