101

101 miles in the last 7 days.

I sweated yesterday's track workout all day. I was feeling trashed. Legs were incredibly sore and tired. Still, I was resilient:

10x 800's w/ 75 second rest:
1 - 2:33.4
2- 2:34.7
3- 2:34.3
4- 2:35.5
5- 2:36.5
6- 2:34.5
7- 2:33.7
8- 2:34.0
9- 2:35.5
10- 2:31.5
Avg: 2:34 (77's)

Even better - I had to pace it all alone. McHair and Monster were there, but running their own paces. No Reamers to pull piggy back off of. I still felt plenty strong though, and easily could've belted out a couple more... or even pressed the pace slightly more.

My reward: I'm sore again this morning. Too sore. It's all in the calves. I had nightmares last night about getting injured.... and again, I've been sweating today's planned double.

I'm pulling the plug on my plans to close the week at 100. I'm already there w/ 101. I'm not going to gain anything from running myself into the ground. It shouldn't be this stressful so I'm taking today completely off and relaxing.
