A week of peaks and valleys

Posted by cselland on 8/25/2007 on cselland's blog

Took advantage of this week's moderate weather to get my speed (term used loosely) and tempo runs in on Tuesday and Thursday nights. 5.86 miles in 55:16 on Tuesday - with my HR and pace flying all over the place (I chose to use the roads and not the high school track). Neighbors must have been confused if they were watching (he's sprinting, he's walking, he's sprinting again...) 6 miles in 53:02 on Thursday - decent tempo run although hotter than Tuesday and I felt it. In between on Wednesday was a business dinner which, while great for business, was definitely not helpful for my training. At least I made my steak tuna, but the Cabernet feels like it's still with me. The heat's back for the weekend - need to do 20 tomorrow (after some bike x-training today). Tomorrow's miles may wind up being on the treadmill - would love to get out early AM but for family reasons I don't think it's going to be possible
