Weekly Training Report - April 5th-11th

Monday: 8.3 miles (7:22)

Tuesday: 12.3 miles (7:18)


Wednesday: 6.7 miles (7:32)

Thursday: 7.0 miles (7:35)
Holy crap, it was HOT today!  I felt like I was going to pass out and had to walk a couple of times.  No more running during lunch time, I guess.  I need to start getting up early and getting my run in before the sun is up.

Friday: 8.0 miles (6:55)
I did a tempo run, my first workout in awhile.  My goal was 5 miles at ~6:20 pace, I only made it 3 miles and my splits were 6:14, 6:12, 6:20.  I was too fast for the first two miles and I think that kept me from going the whole 5 miles.  I was really hurting that last mile.

Saturday: 8.1 miles (7:28)

Sunday: 16.0 miles (7:34)

Weekly total: 66.3 miles
I'm not looking forward to the next 3 or 4 months of running in this heat.  Most of my runs this week were at night after the sun went down.  But, it was still 80 degrees during my runs and it doesn't get dark until 8 pm.  So, I definitely plan on trying to switch to running in the mornings.  It's usually 10 degrees cooler, and I usually get up early anyways.
