It ain't Chinese algebra!

Good run this morning.  Past Providence hospital and to Cotsco, bike path near the airport runway to the mall, then home via Jackson and past St. Mary's.  I felt good the entire way, both physically and mentally.  I hope it stays that way.  I need to sign up for a race.  That always helps keep me going...

Cumulus (260)

No need for a course description today as I was all over the place.  Was hoping for more but ran out of time.

I'm surprised that these shoes have made it past 400 miles.  They were feeling worn out around 200 but they feel the same today as they did then.  I guess that's a good thing?

1 more mile on the treadmill.

Boston (405)

5 mile warm up around Albertsons and St. Mary's and then to the track for some speed work.  I decided on 6 x 1200 with 400m jog between each.

• 3:55
• 3:52
• 3:50
• 3:51
• 3:48
• 3:39

I was a little too conservative in the beginning but it was the first track work in quite a while and I wasn't sure what I could expect.  The last two indicate that I can push harder next time when I start my workout.  I also think that 400m jog between is too much rest (generally I came through at 1:50) but 200m (60 seconds) doesn't seem like enough.  Not today anyway.  We'll see...

2 mile cool down.

Y2 (259)

I'm tired.  I fell asleep while putting on my shoes. ;)  I woke up 20 minutes later and finally left for my run.  Golf course and St. Mary's loop.  I'm tired...

Boston (412)

Big stuff.

5 easy miles around the golf course and 2 tempo miles around St. Mary's.  Hot out--over 70 by the time I finished.

Pathetic end to the week.  That's 2 weeks in a row that have been less than stellar.
