well, we hope so anyway. my training was a bit derailed by the flooding, but pretty much just on friday, when it was all at its worst. it was a bit of an odd week, all around.
monday: planned to go 5, maybe 6, but bumped into simone and decided to give her a little company, even though it meant running a bit faster than i had planned. i'm not totally sure how far i ended up going, but i'm guessing around 4.5 miles. the first 2 were my normal pace and the second two were probably closer to 7 minutes. i figured that cutting off a bit of the mileage was an okay compromise.
tuesday: OFF - unintentional and lazy. have to be better about working the run into my tuesday schedule. maybe eat a bigger breakfast and go right after i leave work, which is usually right around noon.
wednesday: 6. great run in the arb before it started raining.
thursday: 5, very slow at first with donna, checking out the rising water. little did we know how much it would change in 24 hours.
friday: OFF - unintentional, but not lazy. spent the morning hauling things out of west and stadium as quickly as possible to protect as much as we could from the water. just ran out of time to go running, but got in some good lifting and a somewhat aerobic "workout".
saturday: indeterminate mileage at the griak meet, most of which was accomplished by sprinting around the course as quickly as possible. not really a run, but between that and the 5:30 wake-up, it was easy to make excuses when i wanted to take a nap instead of going running when we got home.
sunday: .25; started out on a 9 mile run and realized that the little blister i was starting to get on my achilles was only going to get worse since i could already feel it rubbing. instead of rectifying the situation with a bandaid/tape/moleskin solution, i had lunch instead. not a good compromise.
today i'll try wearing higher socks and see if that fixes the blister issue. hopefully i won't have to bandage it up everytime i want to go running.
