To anyone following this blog, I've got to apologize for being so absent this week. Things have been very busy at work, which has made training, puppy ownership and everything else come first before getting this updated. Not to worry though! Training is still ongoing and although I feel like I've been hit by a truck nearly everyday at this point, things are going (relatively) well.
As I've mentioned before, this will be my last week of Phase 1 training before starting to include rep & interval training next week. My body is STILL adjusting to this mileage and the constant stress.... sore right Achilles, left hip/sciatic issues and now possibly a pulled muscle in my back... but I'm getting through it with a huge focus on recovery. As I have been really busy this week I think my mileage will be a little bit down this week (like around 65 miles) but it's probably needed anyway.
Next week I will lower to 55-60 miles while I adjust to the introduction of this speedwork again. That's when this blog will start to get interesting as I give greater details on the hard workouts that are happening and hopefully the results that I see from them.
Here's what I've gotten done this week:
Monday: 13.5 mi (double)
Tuesday: 8.25 mi
Wednesday: 10.5mi
Thursday: 6.25mi (short on time)
Friday: 9.25mi (double)
Happy training!
