Training Summary: March 31-April 6

Monday 3/31 - 8mi, 58:41, easy with Di

Tuesday 4/1 - off

Wednesday 4/2 - 8mi, 55:30, solo but felt terrible

Thursday 4/3 - 8mi, 60:03, very easy with Di, 6X100 light strides

Friday 4/4 - 8mi, 58:30, easy with Di

Saturday 4/5 - Cheseboro Half-Marathon, 1:18:42, 1 up/1down, 15mi total

Sunday 4/6 - 6mi, 48:30, easy solo

Total - 6 runs, 53mi. Overall it was a pretty decent week with some fairly easy running leading up to a very hard 1/2 marathon. I am feeling a little better about running 6:35/mi at Boston with Di. I didn't think I would break 1:20 at the half considering how tough it was and I did, so that was a nice surprise. In all no injuries, no major issues and that is all I care about right now.

I don't plan on running any more or less than 55mi or so next week or the week of Boston. I know for sure I am working the Boston Marathon expo which is going to make running tough. If you have worked an expo you know how much it beats up your legs. I hope I get some sort of sympathy from the guys and I can take it fairly easy on that Sunday at the expo. More to come on this as we get closer.
