hot week

well its been warm this week obv. The week was ok- my knee has been a little more sore than expected but not really a prob. The big question is whether i can remember 4 days ago.

wed- ah this was a hot day when anna got a tiny bit carried away with time placement heh by running at 345 at longnecker. she did 2 miles before i got there and then we went out to the intersection and back as she didnt feel good. SO 4 miles there. Then at 6 i ran w the team 1 mile wu then 4 800s in just under 7 min pace(merritt was 319,317,324,322)- matt r about the same scott was in the 310 range. so 4+3 for the day

Thurs- ran w anna at LRes trails- she was much much better and this was a good solid 8.5+ - we did approx 50 min on the trails and then added on 14 min on the road. I felt pretty good

Fri- Ran by myself at mcd- 2 mile wu over to woods- it didnt feel that hot for the first mile and then slowly continued to feel hotter and hotter heh. Did two loops at steady pace 8:04/7:52 for 15:57 which is def not bad. Obv if it was 10-15 deg cooler i could have done 3 at that pace which is not bad after 8ish weeks of running. This wo is a good strength builder obv. ran slowly back via farm rd and then melted a little haha

Sat- ran w scott,marc,matt and merritt at ncr. Out to monkton and back- i was in the ack w merritt for most of it as she had a fairly bad cramp esp on the way back and didnt feel good so we went slow. she is pretty tough it was hard to talk for a while. Hopefully this will go away i know of david mcneil for one is an elite runner that continued to get side stitches even though he is very good. lots of people sort of grow out of it. 7

So 50 miles for the week. I was going to run again on saturday but i wimped out and went to the airport instead. Also starting to significantly look at race schedule for the fall. Thats why im not overly stressed about training now- im doing ok and keep it up but the main thing is whether or not i continue once school starts. We shall see! Also im feeling significantly freed up by recent events well see how that goes as well. I still think i can go back under 16 at some point in the future which would be good. Not right now though lol.
