Training Week June 28th-July 4th
Sunday, June 28th: It increased 10 degrees form when I started this run and ended it. I find myself wavering between 7-9 miles and so I've gone back down to 7 this week. There's really no good training reason to go beyond that for me, personally, so I'm okay with seeing an hour long run in there once a week. It was okay aside from the heat but as my Strava post questions: how did I do marathon training in this?
Monday, June 29th: Rest, rest with work.
Tuesday, June 30th: So weather is going to be an issue this week. I waited but the chance of lightning kept increasing and eventually I jumped on the bike, during which the storm came through so I'm okay with that decision. It means my running miles will be down this week, I bet, but can't win them all.
Wednesday, July 1st: And stormy again so back on the bike. This was a really good ride and a PR which is awesome. I think it helped that I hven't run in a few days so my spin legs were fresher. I also think that I don't always go as hard as I can which is fine since I'm not a spinner by nature.
Thursday, July 2nd: Finally able to get out and run. I enjoy that a cramp decided to join me for a while. I kept at it and it went away so that's good. It was a good run and one that I felt happy about and focused AND it came after a long day of work. I am not looking forward to the return of the normal work and running/work out balance, but perhaps it's something that I've needed this whole time.
Friday, July 3rd: I got out and did an Interval run plus some to get to five. The whole pace of the run was 7:55 so that's pretty sweet. It was cooler even though the humidty which is typical this time of the year.
Saturday, July 4th: The Peloton I decided on today was so-so. It was fun seeing all the instructors but it felt disjointed and I didn't get the impact you can have on these rides. But that's okay and it went well enough.
