    Monday on the Run #20

    Posted: Mar 30, 2015 Last Modified: Mar 30, 2015 by Carmy

    Happy Monday! ONE MORE WEEK TIL FINALS!

    MONDAY ON THE RUN

     

    Monday – 7k
    Tuesday – Rest
    Wednesday – 8k
    Thursday – Cross training.
    Friday – Missed Run
    Saturday – Rest
    Sunday – 15.2k

    Monday I did a shake out run because Sunday was a bust.  It felt good going out and no itching like crazy!

    Wednesday was crazy. I personally cannot believe I ran these splits so MAYBE my polar doesn’t like where I was running?  It felt weird because I was doing a 2k loop of rolling hills with headwind because I was taken up to the middle of nowhere….8k with 3k progression in 48 with my splits: 6:11, 5:52, 6:13, [5:53, 5:50, 5:50], 6:16, 6:27. I could not believe I did that with hills!  I’ve been kind of out of it the last few months so nailing my recent runs feels good!

    Thursday: 35 mins of cycling while I cheered on my recruits as they ran! Then 500m easy run (pacing), leg lifts and calf raises at 70-80lbs.

     

    I’m happily spinning away in my new @nike lunar tempos while my two amazing recruits run beside me

    Then 3hrs at a the One of a Kind Show… 3hrs for one loop! I of course bought a ton of pretty things…. shop local right? ;) haha.

    Then Sunday, I did 15k! My longest run since the Scotiabank half marathon! I’m just so amazed at myself considering how many runs I’ve missed or flopped in the last two months, I really cannot believe that I ran it. Also, I managed to pick up one of my Nike 15k recruits along the way haha. He made me run up a flight of stairs so I’m reevaluating our friendship as I type this…LOL 

    Sometimes I pick up runners/recruits along the way! #nrc

    Phew! That was an interesting week… fingers crossed next week my runs will be just as strong!

    So how was your week?

      Way to go on the 15k! I have to run that next week…kinda nervous for it! Aren’t the runs where you surprise yourself with pace the best? :)

        Good luck next week! :D you’ll LOVE it. I feel like 15k is the perfect distance. Not too short or too long!

      Great week of running! 15k is a great distance–far enough that you have to pace yourself, but you can push it a bit. I haven’t run for 2 days and I’m a little antsy…

      Nice progression and long run! It’s always a confidence booster to run a workout well with hills :)

      Congrats on nailing your runs and on the 15k! My week was pretty lame in comparison, mostly because I was sick and missed/bombed all my workouts. Hopefully this week goes better!
