This week was 61 miles of running, 1500 yards of swimming and 18 "miles" of pool-running -- training log is here.
Really just more of the same - trying to train consistently without overdoing stuff. It feels like I might be making some slow progress - I no longer feel wobbly at the beginning of runs, just weak and slow.
I do still note that I am considerably worse running downhill than on the flat - on Sunday's progressive long run, I dropped nearly 15 seconds per mile once I was running on the flat rather than downhill. I have a hunch that figuring out the reason behind that will also fix my issues.
Dailies:
Monday: 3 miles on treadmill (10:03) and 1 hour pool-running. Foam rolling at night.
Tuesday: 12 miles, including a track workout of 2000, 800, 1600, 800, 400 in 8:49, 3:17, 6:42, 3:12, 1:33. 6 minute recoveries after the 2000 and 1600; 3 minutes recovery after the first 800 (longer between second 800 and 400 due to shoe tying). Followed with leg strengthwork and 500 yards recovery swimming. Foam rolling in evening.
