Tuesday: Strength Intervals

7/2/2013

0 Comments

 
Apparently two weeks off didn't hurt my fitness too much, but it definitely hurt my ability to recover each day after running. I've been sore since Sunday's 15 miler, so I took it easy on Monday with 4mi and got a 3mi recovery run in this morning.

I still felt a bit tight for this evening's intervals but was able to complete the workout without much trouble--sometimes fast running actually feels better than slow, presumably due to better form when running fast. Even so, I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow.

Warmup: 2mi easy.
Drills: High knees, high skips, butt kicks, carioca.
Intervals: 5x1mi at HM pace w/ 600m recovery jog.
Cooldown: 2mi easy.

Tomorrow I get a big package from Running Warehouse and hope to hit the treadmill at Keene Fitness in order to test out a bunch of shoes and decide what to keep (looking for a mid weight trail runner for Wakely Dam, in between the Hoka Mafate and La Sportiva Helios). Should be fun!

Total Miles: 11mi
Weekly Total: 18mi
