It Must be Fall
I played tennis in high school. In Ohio, girls tennis is a fall sport; boys tennis is a spring sport. Anyway, I always knew how deep the season was getting not by how cold it was but by how windy it was. I had forgotten how windy fall can be until this week. I only had a few short run this week but boy it's been windy! This morning was no different. I headed out for a snappy run and the wind was pushing me around. The run was all based on heart rate and it was hard to control it when I was working so hard against the run. (Guess I better get used to this since I'm sure there will be A LOT of windy bike rides in my future.) I still had a really successful run hitting intervals at 7:44, 7:38, 7:41, and 7:31 paces. I looked at the schedule for next week and there's one more 20 miler looming. It's almost time....
Go go go Meredith!!! You're doing great!
ReplyDeleteGreat pacing on that run!
ReplyDeleteHey! Your comment worked and came up on my site!
I have run 50+ in a a week like ONCE. I usually am between 35-40, and that's training for IM and marathon...

I think when you first start training for IM the running miles need to come down a little to make room for all the new stuff; then they can come back up again later.
