Week 7 Recap
Wow, what a week of running!! I can't say I had great runs all week, actually most of the week my legs felt like lead, especially on the 7 mile Wednesday night run, but all in all it was a great running week. On Saturday we had the Spartan 5k race which could possibly be the best time ever!!! 12 obstacles over 3 miles, a perfect Saturday morning and afternoon with some of the best people I know..who could ask for more? There were hundreds of pics taken over the course of the day with our teammates and I couldn't have been more proud of every single one of my team mates. This will definitely be a yearly race we do!
Since we didn't do our long run on Saturday, we had to make up for it on Sunday. We had 14.05 miles up two of the biggest hills in Worcester, Goddard Memorial and Airport Drive. I had a great run, made it up the hills with no problems and finished the 14 miles strong. Afterward however, I was SORE!! I haven't been sore after a run since the half marathon, the only thing I can attribute it to was the 2 mile hill climb on our run, because other than that, there were no changes in the terrain of our long runs.
Well, I am leaving for AZ on Wednesday to hike the Grand Canyon with Robyn. I'm going to have to tweak this weeks running schedule slightly since we are planning a 16 mile hike on Thursday and my long run is moving to Sunday.

Week 4
So, I have to make a slight adjustment to this week since I missed our 10 mile run on Saturday (which I did Monday,) so Tuesday will be a rest day and then I'll be back on track.August 2-August 8
Monday: 10 miles
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: 4 miles
Thursday: 3 miles and Strength
Friday: Rest
Saturday: 11.6 miles
10 miles
So, due to unforeseen circumstances, I missed my Saturday run with my team. I ended up taking 3 days off and ran my 10 miles yesterday evening, on a treadmill, but hey, I got the mileage in and overall, I felt good. I can't believe we are moving into week 4 already!
