Tuesday PWO

Primary Workout
13 miles in Boost5

Ran after work around 1 o'clock at Lee-Davis. Did the workout that was for last week mostly because I know its hard and I wasn't sure what todays workout was. Did the workout in Spring Meadows and it was 8.5 miles worth of workout. Workout was 5 minutes on/off, 4 minutes on/off, 3 minutes on/off, 2 minutes on/off, 1 minute on/off, 2 minutes on/off, 3 minutes on/off, 4 minutes on/off, 5 minutes on. Was supposed to negative split and I did for the 5 minute portions but idk for the other ones. Was a hard workout but got it done like I needed to. Will be interesting to see how they feel tomorrow.

Monday

Training Run
8 miles in Boost4

Ran at the battlefields after work around 5 o'clock. Much better run today than yesterday. Legs felt more fresh, only problem was that I didn't have enough water throughout the day. Good run, overcast and low 70s helped a lot.

Totals

*3 off days, 2 short days, alternate workouts everyday except for Sunday*

4 days/ 4 sessions

Total: 29 miles

Boost4: 11 miles ==> 423 miles

Boost5: 18 miles ==> 404.5 miles

Sunday

Long Run
13 miles in Boost5

Ran downtown (back at home now sadly). Went from Maymont all the way down a ways on the Virginia Capital Trail. Good run for the route but bad run for my body. Either tired as heel from last week or am not in the shape I was the week before. Worst run in a while. Tried to do a tempo but was running kinda slow and only for about 20 minutes. Awful run today.

Friday

Training Run
5 miles in Boost4

Ran in the morning again for the last day at the beach. Thought about going surfing when I got up but the waves were too small and too much shorebreak so I ran instead. Better run today, got loosened up better, still painful though.

Wednesday

Training Run
5 miles in Boost5

Ran in the morning again, was very very tired when I tried to run. Legs were better than Monday but still not great. Gonna be a low week but I am getting in tons of alternative training which is good.

Monday

Training Run
6 miles in Boost4

Ran for about 40 minutes today. Was super painful because of yesterdays long run plus skimboarding and surfing all day. Barely could run when I started, got loosened up pretty well though. We will see how the rest of the week goes.
