It's been a better week for my running than for my blogging, which is a good thing. Last week had a good 5 mile tempo run at about 6:40 pace, track workout of 2x 1200/800/400, and a really fun Sunday long run of 15 miles with the Keenyans, at about 7:20 pace(except for the snow covered bike path, but the effort there was even more, so I'm counting the whole thing as 7:20). Yesterday was such a nice day that I ran hard, even though today is Wednesday with the crew. The plan this week called for a 10 mile tempo at 7:15(MP), and I was just a few miles into it when Andy pulled along side on his bike on Marlborough Street. He rode with me for a little while, and dropped my average pace for the first 5 down to 7:07. I was feeling really good, even after looping around George Street for the third time, and I was able to drop the average pace to 7:03. Not too bad for me after Sunday. Today my legs feel fine, and I am supposed to do 3x1600, at 6 min pace. So far I've been able to keep my times at or below what the plan has called for, but this will be a challenge.
God said to Abraham, Kill me a son. Abe said Man, you must be puttin me on. God said No. Abe said What? God said You can do what you want Abe, but, next time you see me coming, YOU'D BETTER RUN!
