Another eventful week. Had minor surgery on Wednesday. My first question for the surgeon was whether I'd be able to run 20 miles on Saturday, to which she responsed: "so, you are not one of those people that when you get the urge to exercise you let it past". Then she proceded to tell me that she ran Boston 4 times, and that, if I can put up with the cold, there is no reason I should not run. Hurray. Recovery was speedy and quick. I was out all day Wednesday but managed a tempo run on Thursday.
Monday: SPEED
Goal: 5X 1000m @ 6:56 pace.
Actual: 5X1000m @ 6:40-6:50 pace (3 uphill, 2 downhill)
Since Monday was a holiday, I met up with the Sues in the am. Chris was gracious enough to sit for Sue M's lovely kids - don'd I have the best husband? It was nice to have company for speed work
Tuesday: SWIM
1.25m swim, with .25 kicks. Again, wanted to do 1.5m but ran out of time and had to get Petru and go home for dinner.
Wednesday: REST
And I mean out of it all day.
Thursday: TEMPO RUN
Goal: 1 m easy, 5 m @ 7:59, 1m easy
Actual: 1 m easy, 5m@ 7:40, 1 m easy
Had some knee pain after this one and was a bit concerned as it lingered till Friday.
Friday: SWIM
1.5m, .25 kicks
Saturday: LONG RUN
20 m run
Goal: 9:35
Actual: 9: 03
Awsome run, long hills.
