DairyKing's Journal, 01 May 2012

Up at 4:00. Did an easy 2.0 miles at under 11:45 pace. Sticking to the training plan. Cross-train tomorrow, then 5.0 mile tempo run at 10:00 pace on Thursday. I am liking this plan. Been able to do my 8.0 mile runs 2 Sundays in a row with no ill effects afterwards. At my age, I'll take it. 9.0 miles this Sunday. Looking forward to it; will be the farthest I have run in over 9 years. It has actually been a pretty moderate training plan. Typically, I would just be careful not to increase my overall mileage by more than 10% per week, and my overall mileage for the week has only been increasing by about 5% - about a mile per week overall. That could explain why I'm feeling a lot more limber, and enjoying it more. Countdown to 5K race = 18 days, and if things go well - 15K a month later on June 16th.

Have a great day!

looking forward to 9 miles.? i would have never understood that kind of comment before, but I find myself looking forward to my long slow runs more than the other ones, so long as it's nice and I'm doing it outside!

Great plan!! Your race will be here before we know it, and you will be awesome! I think a 15K in June would be no sweat for you!
