15 More Weeks To Go

We've officially moved to summer with this tropical weather.
Not liking it, but since this session's motto is "I will not complain about heat nor fatigue.", I'm going to have to deal with it.  It'll make me a stronger runner - or so I hope.

Monday 6/24: 7M on treadmill.  I'm liking these morning runs on the treadmill, as I can secreatly practice marathon pace.  Evening, I went to spin class.

Tuesday 6/25:  AM - Illegal 5M run on treadmill.  Faster Finish Week 4.  NEW! 2X Upper Reservoir Loop. HMP and Time Trial.  It could've been faster, but I think this is half decent.  http://connect.garmin.com/activity/333375058

Wednesday 6/26:  Midweek Midmiles 8M.  My goal here is really not to get too slow during the summer.  Each long run, I do want to keep it below 8:30 pace, if not faster.  http://connect.garmin.com/activity/333826650

Thursday 6/27:  Went to the hard Pilates class in the AM, then had hard Trackwork in the evening.
4X 400m MP, 400m 10K, 400m 5K, no recovery.  I was OK for the first two sets, then after the third, it got progressively hard after the 5K.  I liked the workout, but it was hard. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/334184646

Friday 6/28: After much mulling around with my running partner on whether or not I should do an illegal run, it was decided that I'll try to do some speed work on treadmill.  Especially sine the Thursday night work was bad.  400m MP, 400m 5K back to back for 3 miles after a 1 mile warm up.

Saturday 6/29:  Pride Run sandwiched between 2.5M or warm up and recovery.  Decided that I should aim for marathon race pace.  Result was bad.  I just didn't have it after the Cat Hill and gave up.  I was going strong on the West Drive Hills, so I'm OK with it.   http://connect.garmin.com/activity/335012644

Sunday 6/30:  Long Run 16M.  Was OK until the last few miles, when I suddenly had a difficult time concentrating.  Can't figure out if it was fuel or boredom...http://connect.garmin.com/activity/335524828

Total Miles:  appx 55
