I finally got some good volume in this week--although partly accidental because I was not planning to double Saturday, but did anyway because Danny George wanted to run. No complaints there.
After my long run Tuesday I did ten on Friday evening involving a workout of sorts. I ran from the gym to Rock Creek cutting up to the Trolley trail at Grosvenor ending up at Georgetown Prep. On the way to Prep I did a few sections (1.2 miles, 0.8 miles, 0.55 miles) @ 40% which felt great. My guess is I was running around 5.40 pace but who knows.
At Prep I got on the track and did 2 sets of 4 x 200 (100j) just to get my legs moving. The reps felt quick, possibly in the 31-33 range. I then headed back to the gym and lifted.
As long as I continue hitting good miles and incorporating harder and harder workouts I think I'll be ready for racing once September hits.
Totals:
Week 36: 68
August: 129
