Tuesday I was still a bit sore from my run on Sunday and the lingering effects of total body melt a week earlier so I went out on a slow recovery run. 5.1 mi in 58:05 an 11:23 pace
Wednesday was my birthday and I had every intention of getting up and running but the drive back from the US Gold Cup match in Hartford the night before made me sleep in.
Thursday, I tried to make up for it going a bit farther than needed. The heat even in the morning drained the energy, as it did the whole week, and the run became more of a death march than an enjoyable run. 5.3 mi in 1:02:51 an 11:51 pace
Friday is my normal an off day and it was just way too hot to run, but I did make my way to the Gym for some cross training. 1 hour of strength training on the various machines since I didn't make the hell class this week prepared me to try it again next week.
Saturday I set out on a 5 mile run that felt like I was running in pea soup. I was hot tired and had the Mass Ave Mile the next day so after 5K I was done 3.1 mi in 36:44 a 11:52 pace
Sunday was the Mass Ave Mile sponsored by Marathon Sports. If you didn't guess from the name it was a one mile race from Porter square to Harvard square. There were just over 300 participants and it was a fun little run. My goal was a sub 9 minute mile, and about half way through I had the thought of a sub 8 minute mile, but in the end I was happy with my time of 8:26. After the race we grabbed Julie's bike and she met up with my aunt and uncle in town while I continued to run to get my miles in for my long run. It got cut a bit short so we could join them for lunch all in all it was a nice little run! 10.1mi in 1:56:27 an 11:32 pace including the race mile
