Training Summary: February 9 - 15

Mon 2/9 - 7mi, no time, easy in some crazy wind and rain with JLew and the Mizuno Run With Us guys Brian and Joe up in Del Mar

Tue 2/10 - 10mi, 71:00, easy around Mission and Pacific Beaches with the Mizuno crew.

Wed 2/11 - 8mi, 60:00, easy around Balboa Park with the Mizuno crew.

Thu 2/12 - off, no good reason.

Fri 2/13 - 10mi, 74:30, out at San Pasqual trails with Di for 8 and then 2 solo.

Sat 2/14 - 9mi, 59:00, easy morning run around La Jolla.

Sun 2/15 - 14.1mi, 1:31:49, solid long run solo around the bay. Felt like 7min pace but held 6:30ish pace the entire run, super fantastic day!

Summary: 58mi, 6 days. I had a few really easy days and an off day but the long run was solid and felt insanely easy. As long as I don't take a day off I should hit 70+mi next week which is right where I want to be. I think I may begin throwing in a mid-run workout this coming week which I will use as my other hard day, besides my long run, for the time being. I have decided I am going to run the Carlsbad 5000 and the La Jolla Half Marathon, both in April. I am excited to get in a solid 5000 on the road and hopefully pull off a good time. The LJ Half is more about getting a really hard effort in, as it is a very difficult course, but I am excited to finally do it.
