2,850 mile goal for the year: Check.
Happy New Year!
I went into last week unsure of how many miles I would get in this year amidst continuing Christmas festivities and New Years Celebrations. While I continued to indulge in the holiday junk, I also had a surprisingly great week of running. My legs felt great and all my runs felt easy and fast (holiday junk eating = faster running? :).
I ended up with 69.1 miles for the week and surpassing my goal of 2,850 miles for the year. Take that 2011.
Monday: 10 mile run in Wylie, Texas @ just under sub-8 pace.
Tuesday: 5 mile ez during lunch
Wednesday: 15.05 miles @ 8:03 pace
Thursday: 7 mile progressive tempo run
Friday: 10 mile run - 5 out, 5 back (run second half faster than first; sub 8 pace)
Saturday: 16.1 mile long run with Mick; starting at 8:30 pace and dropping to 7:15 pace. 7:50 avg pace for the run.
Sunday: 5.85 mile resolution run with the Georgetown Running Club. Ran with Rob, Allison & Justin @7:47 pace.
Happy New Year from the Ruyle's!

ReplyDeleteYou outdid me...I was in bed at 9!
Great running week and happy new year to you and Dan, and the dogs :)
Awesome week of running! I think junk food makes me a better runner. :)
ReplyDeletePretty impressive list of goals for 2012 Erin - I think that the Pfitz plan is really going to pay some big dividends for you Erin - even if you just taper for Boston, that will be sure to make a big difference for you!
ReplyDeleteIf you ever need a workout partner for some of those mid-week longish tempo runs, just let me know - I use a "Marruchellaized" version of the Pfitz plan, subbing in the hill work for some of his up-tempo stuff, but our days should match up pretty well.
Take good care Erin and best of luck out in AZ!
