Sunday
1500 yards in pool, then hit pavement about 11:00 p.m. for quick four miler.
Besides the suffocating heat, and a gallon of sweat soaking through my shoes, it was nice to run outside.
Saturday
8 miler with 3 x 800 gradual hills. Slowed pace down my 15 sec / mile, made big difference. Still sweated through shoes, but breathing a lot less labored.
For long runs, drop it down 20-30 sec / mile, should allow me to go out to 15.
Friday
Up at 5:15, on mill at 5:30 to beat heat. Wanted to do 11, but 90% humidity made it hard to breath; it's like training at altitude. Did 7.
Cross Train: 60 minutes on stationary bike.
Thursday
Cross train: 15 on bike, 1500 yards in pool
Wednesday
Six miler.
Tuesday
Tried to do 11 at lunch, made it to 3. Tried to do 11 at night, made it to four.
Heat brutal. I'm way overweight.
Need to spend next 4 weeks reducing mileage and upping (big time) fat burning cross training. Then do five weeks hard running.
Monday
Five miler
