1 mile repeats

Morning Track + Week 9 Recap

March 8, 2011 by Kristy 2 Comments

3/8/11

7 miles speed

I was at the track by 5:50 this morning.  I love having the track all to myself.  Four women showed up to run a mile but thankfully they stayed in the outer lanes.

The workout:  1.5 mile warm-up, 3×1-mile repeats (7:25, 7:30, 7:37) with 800m rest interval in between, 1.5 mile cool-down.  Not my fastest mile repeats but I was huffing and puffing like a dog.  Another reason why I like being at the track alone; I sound like I’m dying during speed work.

Let’s recap week 9 of NJ Marathon training!
MON:  rest
TUE:  8 miles speed + yoga
WED:  8 miles tempo
THU:  rest
FRI:  yoga
SAT:  18 miles
SUN:  5 miles easy

Total of 39 miles and 2 yoga classes!  I was happy with this week of training, even though it began with some heavy, tired legs.

My plan for the rest of the week:  yoga tonight, rest tomorrow, tempo on Thursday, yoga on Friday (I have the day off – YEAH!), long run on Saturday (20-miler — take 3), and easy miles on Sunday.

Have a great day!
