School's back, weather's hot, running's crap...it just didn't happen this week.
Here goes...
Wednesday - off. First day back, too much to absorb at school, weather's too hot just and wanted to zonk out.
Thursday - session on the treadmill. 8 x 500 @ between 18.6 & 19.2 km/h, with a 150m walk/jog @ (app. 1 minute rest) between reps, warm & cool downs totalled 9km for session in 40 minutes. Got the heart rate up and not much else.
Friday - run through the lakes (2 lapper). 7.62 kms. Heavy in the legs, but was able to beat the heat (run in high 20's perhaps low 30's)
Saturday - race night. Not good, just didn't happen. 2:14 for the 800 & 3K was just under 10. Almost had a conversation with young Michael (teammate) during the race, it was too easier but with the HR peaking @ 174, I was doing a bit of work. With warming up and cooling down a total of about 11.6 kms.
Today - got up too late, legs & body felt flat from last night's late finish so I ended an ordinary week of running with a couple of laps of the Lakes rather than a 2hr + run, just to verify the week was a write-off. Having visitors over for a BBQ during the day + preparation for school also cut short.
The month:
Estimated kms - 416
days off: 3
Good - got to 30kms in long run, cracked 4:30 for 1500 twice. 100km weeks.
Bad - the last week.
Fatigue, visitors & school main interruptions.
