A bit of a recovery run today due to yesterdays semi-fast run. Left knee was hurting a little for the first 2 or 3 miles and then didn't notice it again for the rest of the run. Decided to pick up the pace for the last mile and see what I could do and ran a 6:45. Not where I would hope to be but not bad. Coming up on the end of another 50 mile week this will make two in a row. I don't know that I will increase the mileage much for the next couple of months as I will let my body adapt to going this distance on a regular basis. Hopefully the body will allow me to continue to do this so I can eventually reach my goal of doing a 70 mile week next year sometime. The weather was perfect again today with temp around 59 and no wind.
Time: 8:24/mile |
