Training log - Week ending 5/30/2021

This week was 39 miles of running, 500 yards of swimming and 12 "miles" of pool-running -- training log is here.

No much to report, other than what was in the race report.  Looking back on my week, I think I may have over-tapered slightly for Sunday's race.  Wednesday was quite muggy and humid, so I pulled back on the paces and the number of reps.  But I think I might have felt a little sharper if I had added in a 1 mile pick-up on Friday.  Or maybe not - who knows.

Monday: 6 "miles" of pool-running and streaming yoga. Foam rolling at night. 

Tuesday: 9 miles very easy (9:01) plus drills and two hill strides, and then upper body weights/core.

Wednesday: 10 miles including a track workout of 3x800, 4x200 in 3:04, 3:04, 3:03, 42, 43, 43, 42;  2:30 and 2:27 recovery between the 800s; full recovery for the 200s.  Followed with 500 yards recovery swimming. Foam rolling in evening.

Thursday: 6 "miles" of pool-running and DIY yoga. Foam rolling at night. 

Friday: 6 miles very easy (9:02) plus drills and four strides, followed by light upper body weights/core.  Foam rolling in the afternoon.

Saturday: Off.  Just travel and some DIY yoga. 

Sunday: 3.5 mile warm-up, 10 mile race in 66:57, 0.5 mile cooldown.
