Trip Six!

27 August 2009

Going under the knife tomorrow. Well the "laser." I'm having LASIK done in the morning, so I won't be running for at least a few days. They say that most people can start running again in a few days, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Ran six miles three times this week. Easy on Monday. With pick-ups on Tuesday, and then second half faster tonight. Worked/drove 'til late on Wednesday. I'm starting to get how I feel on the "short" weeks after the long runs. Tired, sluggish, hungry. None of the runs felt great, but I was able to do them in a reasonable time without feeling like I was killing myself. Next week will feel great, I hope, with the extra rest days. We'll see. And I'LL see.

Stats:

Monday:

6.0 miles
53:37
8:55/mile

Tuesday:

6.0 miles
51:53
8:39/mile

Thursday:

6.o miles
54:42
9:07/mile

Mike: I wanted to be a tree surgeon, but I couldn't stand the sight of sap.
