Week of 24 Aug 2009:

Another great week. I can feel myself getting stronger and more in to the rhythm of a training program. After last weeks 12 mile run I was really stiff on my Sunday's run but I felt pretty good after my 14 mile run on Saturday and felt strong during the 5 mile run on Sunday. Hopefully this weekends labor day plans won't break the good rhythm I am in.

Recap:
Mon- bike- 10 miles
Tues- run- 6 miles; bike- 10 miles
Wed- run- 5 miles; bike- 10 miles
Thurs- run- 5 miles; bike- 10 miles
Fri- rest day
Sat- run- 14 miles
Sun- run- 5 miles

Total- run- 35 miles; bike- 40 miles

Good week!!! My 12 mile run on Saturday was excellent- cool temps, beuatiful morning- wish they could all be like that. I wore my HR monitor just to see what my HR was throughout the run- averaged 147 for the run. I don't really know what that means as I have never really studied heart rates and where they should be during work outs.

Mon- bike- 10 miles
Tues- run- 5 miles
Wed- run- 5 miles; bike 10 miles
Thurs- run 5 miles; bike- 10 miles
Fri- rest day

Not much action the last 3 weeks. I have just fit runs in around life's activities when and where I could. We went to Panama City for a few days of fun in the sun- running was not a priority on the trip- spending quality family time together was my #1 priority. I did get out at 4:30 one afternoon but it was so hot and humid I got a mile down the road, turned around ran 1/2 mile back and then walked the other 1/2 mile back.
Now we are back home and hopefully settling in to a routine and the work outs will start back up. I am ready to get on a schedule and see what happens.
