Thu 3/20: On a plane all day, off. In Maryland!

Mon 3/10: Lower, went pretty easy. 7.8mi.

Tue 3/11: 3x(600, 600, 300). Ran 1:50, 1:48, 52.5, 1:46, 1:49, 52.5 1:49, 1:47, 53. Felt pretty horrible again. Scott says I'm getting burnt out running Susan's workouts, so might do mid-distance stuff for a while. ~7mi total.

Wed 3/12: Garfield long way, 5.7mi.

Thu 3/13: Prerace, 3.4mi. Yay for easy week.

Fri 3/14: Happy Pi Day :). Occidental Distance Carnival! Pretty excited about my 1500 time of 4:28. Split 75, 73, 70, 50 (which converts to 67). I have no idea where that speed came from. It felt kind of funny for the first two laps, like I was wobbling. Got a bit trapped so the first two laps were really slow. Felt really good the last 2 laps though and pretty much killed it. ~7mi total.

Sat 3/15: Waterfall run! Super fun! ~8mi total.

Sun 3/16: Light lifting.

Total: 38.9mi.

Mon 3/3: Lower, went much slower this time. 7.8mi.

Tue 3/4: 2x4x400 going every 2 min, and then 1600 tempo at 5k pace. Ran 72, 72, 71, 72, 70, 71, 73, 71 aka 71.5 average, and then 5:19 mile (80, 79, 81, 79). ~7mi total.

Wed 3/5: Huntington, 6mi.

Thu 3/6: 2on, 1off by 7. Will had a lab, so ran by myself. Felt pretty bad... Ended up like 200m behind the rest of them. Felt good in the mile bonus though, ran 2:38 then 2:30 for a 5:08 mile. I guess Juan and I kind of kicked at the end... ~8.5mi total.

Fri 3/7: Prerace, 3.4mi.

Sat 3/8: 17:20 5k... Felt so horrible. I don't want to do the 5k next week... ~7mi total.

Mon 2/24: Lower Arroyo, 7.8mi. Soleus started feeling better after resting over the weekend, but lower really made it hurt a lot. Ran really fast for some reason, around 7min pace. Doing easy exercises after practice every day b/c don't want to irritate it before the workout.

Tue 2/25: 1600 at 3k pace, then 8, 4, 3 by 2. Ran 5:14 (I think), then 2:24, 70, 50, 2:28, 70, 52. Pretty much died on the last set, especially on the 800. ~7mi. Soleus doesn't feel as bad for track stuff.

Wed 2/26: Crazy Tree, 6mi. Took it a bit easier, but soleus still hurting. Theory: going downhill makes it hurt the most. Uneven terrain (like rocks in the arroyo) also makes it hurt.

Thu 2/27: 4on, 1off by 4. Scott wanted it at 3k pace, no way that was gonna happy. Ran 2:43, 2:45, 2:45, 2:45 for the 800 splits. Ran with Will pretty much the whole time. Had a 1mi (2lap) bonus. Came through at 2:40, finished 5:20. Was supposed to be negative splits... ohh well. ~8.5mi.

Fri 2/28: Lacy long way, 4mi. Had lots of fun running in the rain, splashing Will and Mark the whole time.

Sat 3/1: Had not lots of fun running in the rain, doing a 15min tempo at the arroyo and then 12 45sec strides. Tempo was horrible, came through 1.5mi at 9:40. Did the first two strides in the Arroyo, the next 4 on the way back, and the last 6 on the track. Pace was around 36 sec for the 200 splits. ~11.5mi.
PM: Played a decent amount of easy DDR.

Total: 44.8mi + easy DDR.
46mi equivalent.
