Weekly Mileage Recap: 06/24/18

A 58 mile week with a 16 miler long run

A few weeks into the new training plan with Hanson's Marathon Method 5k training and here's how it went. 

Sunday
Sunday speedwork with 7 X 1K sprints at 10k pace with warm up/cool down for a total of  10 miles. 

Overall it felt pretty good and easier than expected. 

Monday
Easy 6

Tuesday
4 Mile tempo run plus warm up/cool down for a total of 8 miles

Wednesday
Easy 6

Thursday 
Easy 6 with strides

Friday 
16 miler long run with the second half faster than the first

This was the longest run I've ever done. It really was a fun challenge because these are my favorite type of runs. It was very hot and humid outside, and I believe that made it even more challenging.

Saturday
Easy 6

Weekly Mileage Total
58

Overall it was a successful week and next week looks pretty similar and should be good as well.  I feel myself gaining speed and also endurance. I really miss racing though I can't wait to get back into it when the season starts up again.
