10/26 Monday: 4 miles in 32 minutes
Very, very easy. I was very stiff at first...then legs felt better as the run went on
10/27 Tuesday: 7 miles in 53 minutes
Still very stiff when starting the run, then things got better again
10/28 Wednesday: 7 miles in 53 minutes
Legs are feeling much better. But I remained very cautious and tried not to push things.
10/29 Thursday: 7.1 miles in 46 minutes
Progression run. Started with 1 mile easy then dropped the pace each mile. Going, 7:00, 6:40, 6:30, 6:20, 6:05, 5:50. I felt pretty good, and the legs held up OK. This was a good test to see where I am after the marathon and my leg issues.
10/30 Friday: 8.2 miles in 60 minutes
Felt OK today. Feeling a little bit stiff from yesterdays effort.
10/31 Saturday: 13.2 miles in 87 minutes
15 minutes easy followed by 10 minutes at 6 min pace, 2 min easy, 9 min at 6 min pace, 3 min easy, 8 min at 6 min pace, 4 min easy. Then 3 x 4 min at 5:30 pace with 3 min rest. Felt OK for most of this run....except for the 5:30 pace sections which caused my hamstrings and right calf to tighten up a bit.
11/1 Sunday: OFF
Rest and relax a bit to try to help out my tight legs
Total Miles: 46.5 miles
This was a decent week back. Felt OK, but I might have over done it with the effort on Saturday. I still think I will be OK to run Seacoast Half Marathon next Sunday. I will be there either way, its a great race, and a good time!
