After last weekend I was feeling very tired, not helped by having lost a bit of sleep and not being able to have the lunchtime naps I'd become used to on my hols. After feeling wacked out on the Tuesday night run I decided a rest day was called for on Wednesday so that I could attack the mile reps.
I pulled my week back together quite well.
As I write this I've had another rest day to make sure I'm on top form for a midweek 5k, then it's back to full mileage.
Monday | 5.5 miles | easy run | |
Tuesday | 11.5 miles | am: 4 miles easy pm: 7.5 miles club run 7:53/mile 125bpm 72%MHR | Struggled to get my HR up - very tired |
Wednesday | Rest | My first rest for a month - needed it! | |
Thursday | 11 miles | am: 4 miles easy pm: 7 miles 4*1-mile 3-min recover 6:36, 6:40, 6:41, 6:38, max HRs 149, 152, 154, 157bpm | Fastest ever. Very pleased! |
Friday | 10 miles | am: 5 easy pm: 5 steady | |
Saturday | 6.21 miles | Easy but hilly run on country lanes | |
