| 17:15 after less than one week of my modified Lydiard method training with no speedwork in the last 2 months, no days off and 4 hours sleep(ran 9 yesterday at 6:50 pace on the beach and had to work late). Man, I really felt it in my legs after the 2 mile mark though- still finished somewhat strong, maybe a little exhausted. I've only got 70 in this week and I don't think I'm going to be able to hit 100 by Sunday, so I'll just consider this week my warmup :-). Gonna keep up the 100 mile weeks for the next 4 weeks and run another 5k for a comparison with no speedwork. I'll start adding some hills and track workouts after the next 5k and see how it goes. Marine Corp Marathon is still 3 months away so it's a great time for base building anyways, so what the hell. |
