Training Week for September 10 – 16, 2007
September 25, 2007
Life sometimes gets crazy and leaves little time for the things that we love, like blogging. Don’t think I haven’t thought about writing, I have! In fact, everyday for the past 10 days I’ve told myself to carve out a few minutes to update my blog. That didn’t happen, obviously. Because I’m miles behind in my training blog, I’ll make this post short and sweet.
Monday, September 10, 2007 – Easy run – 7.2 miles in 1:02:35, 8:41 pace.
Tuesday, September 11, 2007 – Speed work – 5 x 800m repeats in 3:34 with 400m recovery jogs. Total miles for tonight = 8.1. What an awesome workout – felt wonderful.
Wednesday, September 12, 2007 – Easy Run – 7.4 miles in 1:04:14, 8:40 pace.
Thursday, September 13, 2007 – Tempo Run – 4 x 1 mile with minute recovery jog in between. Ran 1st mile in 7:55, 2nd mile in 7:44, 3rd in 7:47, 4th in 7:45. Total miles for tonight = 8.0. Another wonderful workout!

Sunday, September 16, 2007 – GRTC Relay Team for the Rochester Marathon . I ran the 2nd leg (6.5 miles) for my women’s masters team and continued running right to the end of the marathon. MY TEAM WON THE WOMEN’S MASTERS DIVISION!!! In fact, we were the fastest female team!! Total miles run today = 19.3.
Total miles run for the week = 50 miles
Total miles run year to date = 1,355.08 miles
This morning as I was getting ready, I was thinking about you – wondering if all was going ok. So I ran downstairs and was excited to see your post. Congrats on a great race! When I saw the picture, my first thought was “see Tom, runners do smile”. You look great!
Take care,
Amy
