What a hard week! Very good though, I believe for the long term improvement of my running.
I did the following this week:
Tuesday - treadmill hill interval session. 20 mins of 1 min flat, 1 min at 8 deg's all at 12k, with a a warm up/warm down total of 5 miles.
Wednesday - 10.25 miles with the fast group in 1h18m. They had to stop for me on the hills and ran away in the last mile, and it was very tough, but a great hard run.
Saturday - Chiltern league cross country at Upton Court Park in Slough. Not a great location but 5.4 hard miles. Ran off to fast trying to keep up, and paid for it by having to hold on and no kick in the second half. I am not used to the shorter distances!
Sunday - 15 miles (supposed to be easy) trail run, but legs felt heavy in the last 5 miles.
Total of 35.65 miles. 5 in the mizuno's, 10.25 in the Innov8's, and 20.4 in the sic fuji's.
I am moving house next week, so will miss the first 3 days and will run a lesser effort/milage week, hence the hard efforts this week. I am tired and stiff this evening.
I am enjoying the shorter run's and hope they will improve my half marathon times later in the marathon training cycle.
