Today I come clean.

On Monday I sketched out the week's plan. Today I come clean.

I wound up not running Tuesday because I did do a morning workout because of the 5K race at Westtown School, which I assume was cancelled due to the weather.
Wednesday--7.8--57:40
Thursday--joined up with a 12-member crew in WC Borough for 8 miles or so in 56:30. The route was a new one for me. It seemed like we went for longer than 8 miles, not necessarily because of the challenge of the run but because it seemed like we were at the rim of West Chester area.
Friday--6.6 (3 Rustin loops) in 48:55. My legs felt a little heavy.
.5 mi-4:03
1.0-8:05
2.0-15:40 (7:35)
2.2-17:15--loop #1
2.7-20:45
3.2-24:50 (7:30 from 2.2)
4.2-32:05 (7:15 from 3.2)
4.4-33:35--Loop #2 (16:20)
4.9-37:55
5.4-40:45 (7:10 from 4.4)
6.4-47:35 (6:50 from 5.4)
6.6--48:55--Loop #3 (15:20)

That puts me at 40.7 miles for the week. I didn't reach my goal of 45 miles on account of Tuesday's mishap, but at least this is my second week in a row 40 miles. There's always next week, right?

I am supposed to help a friend move tomorrow morning, but I will try to get in a run beforehand. I'd like to leave something in the tank for a short distance track workout on Sunday. We'll see. I haven't done one in over 5 weeks! Maybe I could do
moderate pick-up reps--8x 400m @ 75 w/2-minute interval and #s 2,5,8 @ 68. My usual would have been 8x 400m @ 70 w/2-minute interval and #s 2,5,8 @ 63. I am a little nervous because I haven't done anything this fast (not that this is fast) and I haven't been stretching as much because I am afraid to get reinjured. There...I came clean.
