Now if I can only

I have been so busy lately that not only am I writing far less frequently, I am simply reporting what I did and much less about how I felt and where I am mentally. I am hoping to reignite my blog this summer.

So far this week:

Saturday, 6/19--7.8 Henderson run
Sunday, 6/20-3.2
Monday--7.3 new route (down to Street Road, down to rte 352, uphill to Johnny's Way, across to main entrance to Westtown School, down to Street Road, across to Shiloh, up to Plumly) 55:20; 7:35 pace.

The plan for the rest of this week:
Tuesday--may do a 5K at Westtown School (5, including warm up and cool down)
Wednesday--6.6
Thursday--WC Borough run--7.9
Friday--7.8

I am going for 45 miles this week. If only I could 1) be tougher during track workouts, 2) get some speedwork in, and 3) do my distance runs with more speed and intensity. And what about those stretching habits? If I could only do better with stretching. Hard-headed. My legs are still less flexible, given my pull in my left hamstring and weakness in my right.

Last week, I eclipsed the 40 mile mark...I think for the first time ever!

Saturday, 6/12--7.8 (Henderson out and back)
Sunday, 6/13--7.8 (Henderson out and back)
Monday, 6/14 --1.8 easy
Tuesday, 6/15--workout at Henderson 4.5--run 1200/jog 200/run 400/jog 400. Did 2 of the 3 sets with warm up and cool down. Did not feel strong.
Wednesday, 6/16--Penn Oaks run 6.6
Thursday, 6/17--6.6
Friday, 6/18--5.0

40.1
