We ended up in the emergency room with my daughter. She fractured her clavicle in gym class and even though the school nurse thought she was fine, I disagreed and the x-rays confirmed my opinion. Didn't get home till late and I was in no mood to run as I had to tend to the poor girl. Her birthday party is this saturday and its a climbing party of all things...ugh.
Friday - 6.8
5am. Muggy and slow.
Saturday - 12.75
5:30am. Long run with Dan (right around 1:40). Beautiful cool weather made for a really nice long run. Its been a while since I've done a long run and this was to be my first in this year's marathon training. Splits:
1 - 8:11; 2 - 7:42; 3 - 7:51; 4 - 7:51; 5 - 7:48; 6 - 7:58; 7 - 7:52; 8 - 7:41; 9 - 8:01; 10- 7:42; 11 - 7:47; 12 - 7:45; .75 - 5:40
I was really happy that we stayed mostly under 8 minutes without really pushing too much. Dan is a great pacer. Next week I will aim for 1hr 50 min.
8am - pilates scaled back a bit for my back which is almost 100% again :-)
Oh I almost forgot, I turned 40 today....
Sunday - 0
Kyla's birthday sleepover party had me up till really late last night and I was wiped out. Wanted to give the back another day off also. Kind of kills my weekly mileage but still the thing to do.
Weekly Summary
Total Miles - 45.95
This week was a little off with Kyla's emergency room incident and the party on saturday and allowing for my back, but I made sure to get in at least 1 hard effort day and one quality long run. Now that my back is pretty stable and Kyla is healing I hope for a better week next week.
