15 miles - This was a solid run for sure. I kind of needed a long thinking run that had a bit of meaning for me. I decided that I should head from home up to wasatch and run part of the course from the BCC marathon I ran in September. I guess I needed to face some of my demons and show them that I could handle them. Overall, I felt really good. This was my longest run this year and I really focused on not losing any form over the course of almost 2 hours on my feet. I tossed in 2 miles at marathon pace just for a little pick me up in the middle. Those felt surprisingly good, but I didn't want to push it any more than that because (1) I had not mentally prepared for more and (2) I really wanted to slow up and just feel good through the whole thing. I feel good about this week and hitting my goals. I originally said that I wanted to hit 45-50 miles but then changed that to a solid 50 after Monday's run. I hit 51.5! I also got in my 400 repeats and ran a couple miles at marathon pace. Next week I want to get in a longer tempo, but I will put that on tomorrow's post with my other goals. | 1 | 8:03.4 | 1.00 | 8:03 | | 2 | 8:04.7 | 1.00 | 8:05 | | 3 | 8:01.6 | 1.00 | 8:02 | | 4 | 8:35.3 | 1.00 | 8:35 | | 5 | 8:05.5 | 1.00 | 8:05 | | 6 | 7:47.7 | 1.00 | 7:48 | | 7 | 7:56.4 | 1.00 | 7:56 | | 8 | 7:03.7 | 1.00 | 7:04 | | 9 | 6:51.8 | 1.00 | 6:52 | | 10 | 7:51.9 | 1.00 | 7:52 | | 11 | 7:37.0 | 1.00 | 7:37 | | 12 | 7:48.8 | 1.00 | 7:49 | | 13 | 8:07.1 | 1.00 | 8:07 | | 14 | 7:52.4 | 1.00 | 7:52 | | 15 | 7:52.0 | 1.00 | 7:52 |
