Thursday Jul 5 |
| running warm up/down (treadmill) 23:00 [2] | |
| shoes: Pegasus 3 wide |
| Early afternoon, watching Wimbledon. |
| running intervals (treadmill) 20:00 [5] | |
| (injured) shoes: Pegasus 3 wide |
| 3 x .5 mile, then 1 x .36 or so ... made the mistake of thinking that the 5km program would allow me enough distance ... but then I used too much to warm up. Decided to just make the last one a +-600 instead of pushing lots of buttons.
I didn't feel fast, but didn't feel heavy or slow either. Just unused to speed. First at 3:04, then 3:03, 3:02 and the last was down to 5:40 mile pace (for however long), which actually felt fine. It takes me ages to warm up! I did stop and stretch after the warm up and before the intervals. Should have done some fast strides too. Next time.
Right quad/IT band tight from about half way through. It never goes away. About 2 hours later my hip began to hurt, and the next day my knee hurt(s). Tried to make an appointment to see the guy Wendy told me about ... but he isn't seeing any new patients until January. So now I need to find someone else to try. I don't want to not be able to do the marathon due to this ongoing injury/biomechanical problem ... |

Wednesday Jul 4 |
| running (trails and roads) 53:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics 2100 - 2 |
| With Ian, after Wendy and Andy raced. Faster by a bit than my ususal pace, but good for me. Could've gone further if I had needed to ... but I didn't. Short swim at Walden after, before the clouds came.
Legs pretty good, but right leg tightening did happen at about 35 minutes. |
Monday Jul 2 |
| running (trails and roads) 53:00 [2] | |
| shoes: Inov8 |
| Can't exactly remember the time ... with Debby at Nickerson. Lovely run, lovely morning. I'm not strong on hills at the moment, but felt pretty good. Not surprising, with all the rest days I've been having. |
