soooo.... last week was not good. in fact, it was pretty bad. i've resolved to be better this week and not let the busyness of this time of year be an excuse to not get the miles in. that's what happened last week. i ran 6 or so on monday and 7 or 8 or something on thursday, and i think that was it.
steps i'm going to take to get through the end of the school year on track:
1. mon/wed/fri - get up at the same time as steve and go running first thing before work. this just has to happen.
2. make those days my longer easy days so that tues/thurs don't seem as daunting in the middle of the day or evening.
3. long runs...still haven't quite figured out the best day to do them, but i think i'm going to see whether wednesday ends up being a good day. i know d comes in to the office a little later because of k's late start, so that would be awesome if it works.
4. for the short term (this week and next week) anyway, top priority is just getting in the mileage. if i can also get in a workout or two each week, great, but if nothing else, i absolutely have to get in the miles.
so far, so good, for this week, though!
monday: 8 miles easy out woodley and back. my legs felt unbelievably awful given how many days they had off, but i did it anyway, and they did feel slightly better on the way back.
tuesday: 6 easy miles in the arb. legs felt much better than yesterday and until the last mile of the run, i averaged just under 7:30, which is really good for me in the arb.
