Run / Hike tempo (Summer Training) 1:05:53 [3] 5.83 mi (11:18 / mi)
slept:4.0 weight:124lbs shoes: Saucony Grid Omni TR


I was SOOOOO close to sleeping in this morning.

  • Warm-up lap around the park.

  • Today's assignment was: 3 x 10-minute tempo run with a 5-minute walk / jog to rest in between. Our coach defined the tempo pace as "you could talk if you had to, but you wouldn't want to" or "maybe 30 seconds slower than your 10km race pace".

    -----------------------------------------
    Time | Avg Pace | Distance
    -----------------------------------------
    10:00 | 9:09 | 1.1
    10:00 | 8:41 | 1.2
    10:00 | 8:48 | 1.1
    -----------------------------------------

  • Cool-down jog back to the trail head.

    • Note


    Even though I'm doing more weekly miles than I used to, the miles are mostly flat and my bad foot is hardly bothering me at all lately. So, I've concluded that running uphill on the balls of my feet is what aggravates my forefoot bursitis (or whatever it is).

    Soccer intervals (outdoor) 30:00 [4]


    We lost 2-1, but we played a thousand percent better than last week.

    I have a mild headache as a result of (a) looking into the low sun and (b) heading a ball badly (more crown-of-head than front-of-head).

    But, when I'm in Boulder, I have an excuse to swing into Whole Foods for a goat cheese-basil salmon burger. YUM!

    Cycling tempo 30:15 [3] 6.4 mi (4:44 / mi)
    slept:7.0 weight:124lbs


    Bike to work. NO WIND! It's amazing what a difference that makes -- I was about eight minutes faster than on the windy day last week.

    Actually, the wind was starting to pick up just as I got to the office. It was an easterly wind, carrying the lovely scent of the Greeley feed lots. At least it'll be a tailwind on my way home if it keeps up 'til this evening.

    C • tailwind 4

    Cycling 37:39 [3] 6.82 mi (5:31 / mi)


    Bike home with a stop at the grocery store. Again -- NO WIND!

    Run / Hike hills (Summer Training) 1:01:57 [3] 5.17 mi (11:59 / mi)
    slept:4.0 weight:124lbs shoes: Saucony Grid Omni TR


  • Half-mile warm-up.

  • Tyler Avenue hill repeats x 4 (up the hill for 0.3, then loop back down to the start to make a one-mile circuit). I guess I started off well, but then we all got spread out around the loop and I lost my pacer.

  • Half-mile cool-down.
