Decent recovery week.   Anxious that HRs were so off the wall on some of the runs, but I think the 1-3 drinks I had Sunday-Tuesday might have had something to do with that.  Workout on the track felt good.   Saturday's workout felt great.

Week ending 9/24/11 77 Miles (Philadelphia Rock and Roll Half Marathon)

Sunday 9/18/11   Philadelphia Half Marathon.   1:08:11
                           Perfect Temp… mild winds up to 13-14mph
splits:
mile 1    4:58       felt relaxed, but fast
mile 2    5:05       settled in… let the massive group get away
mile 3    5:09       trying to find rhythm… running solo or maybe with 1 other guy
mile 4    5:06       top ladies caught up… got in a better groove
mile 5    5:04       hanging with ladies (+10 other guys!)
mile 6    5:11       fell away from group (quads tying up.. flooding with lactate…)
mile 7    5:12       slowly melted off off group
mile 8    5:16.5   struggling
mile 9    5:25       really struggled
mile 10  5:15       downhill mile, started to feel better
mile 11  5:10       got in a good groove, trying to embrace “the suck”, which it did
mile 12  5:15       still fighting
mile 13  5:24.5    got my ass kicked… legs ran out of juice.  heart rate too high; not my day.
last .1      :35


today was a 7 out of 10.   I wanted to run a full 90 seconds faster, but i’m proud of the way i continued to fight.  heart was funny.. would have been interesting to see a monitor (but i hate wearing those during races)   felt ok on warmdown.   
i still feel really good about my upcoming run in Chicago.  Truth be told, I haven’t felt great since Lost Lake.  Lost Lake is the sort of race that can take it out of you:  seeing as how i hammered the last 3 miles of the downhill there so hard, there’s probably a correlation betweeen SORE QUADS during the race and how they felt today.  Katie remarked how stiff and inflexible they were too.  Gotta iron out the wrinkles.

Monday:       In Anchorage.   Easy 7 miles.  out/back on Chester Creek (46:14)  avgHR 135

Feel like I did a good job getting through my cold post Lost-Lake, and still getting some miles and important workouts in. I was slated to run over 100 miles this week, but I felt like I needed more rest.
