Running Log: February 22 - 27

Total Miles for the Week: 23


02/22/10 Ran 4.8 miles at Layfayette Park. I did .8 mile repeats, one slow lap and then one fast lap. The fast laps went 7 minutes, 6.5 minutes and then a bonk. I reckon if I can get four 6.5's, I can narrow down the jog and then string them together for a sub 24 minute 5k. We'll see.

02/24/10 Ran the 5k loop in my neighborhood. I started off easy and quickly accelerated to race pace. I ought not have done that. It was supposed to be a medium effort run but if felt so good going fast. I couldn't help it. My knees are a little ache-y today and my quads are a tad sore but not worse for the wear and I think I'll be fine to race on Saturday.

02/26/10 Ran 2 miles on some of the nicer trails around Fort Yargo. Real easy. There was one hard hill where I worked on running with the same effort versus same speed.

02/27/10 Ran a freaking half marathon. More on that later. Not much to say. It was hard.
