W15D1: REST DAY
W15D2: Easy Run
I really thought I felt good enough to go do a speed run but that obviously didn’t happen... 2 miles in and I was DONE!
W15D3: REST DAY
W15D4: REST DAY
W15D5: Easy Run
My schedule was a bit messed up this week, which lead me to a 3 mile treadmill run on a Friday night. I usually try to avoid the treadmill so any run over a mile is a huge accomplishment to me!
W15D6: REST DAY
W15D7: 13.1 mile long run
Total Weekly Mileage: 18.1 miles
I may have focused on recovery a little bit too much this week... I felt completely fine after Sunday’s 20 miles but I still started the week out with a not so strong run. This cold definitely has turned me into a whimp lately! I ended the week strong with a half marathon PR! 13.1 miles at a 10:15 pace (2:14:16) which is about 5 WHOLE MINUTES faster than my previous record. Needless to say, it ended up being a good week!
When you told me you set a half marathon PR on your long run, I didn't realize it was 5 minutes! That's insane Emily! Setting PRs during training runs is always so exciting.
ReplyDeleteWhat's funny is that I set my last PR during my 20 miler last weekend! I guess resting during the week helped me out. It definitely helps make the training feel ever more productive!
DeleteI know! You've been killing it with the PRs recently. Maybe this means that you'll get a PR during the race
DeleteThat's what I'm hoping!
