Week #14 2012 - April 2-8

Mon 4/2 - Headed out for a few miles before practice.  Did not start well and wasn't sure I could continue.  Back was really sore.  Got through about 3 miles and felt better.  Then did pre-meet Stark run with girls (a bit ahead), followed by hurdles, and 8 x stride with corework.  Then cool-down of 1 mile  (7.5 miles)

Tues 4/3 - Had Dr. appt. at Barrington at 1:30 and left school early.  Said I had eye infection, but otherwise looked OK.  Stopped at Barrington Pond in HE before Tri meet to run.  Went out and back on bike path for 65+ minutes.  Felt OK, but still far from 100%.  Trouble hitting sub 6:30's due to back.  (10 miles)

Wed 4/4 - 2 mile wu/calves/swings/strides.  Did tempo 800's as girls did recovery 800's.  Did 7 x 800m with 1:00 rest +/- (100m jog).  Started at about 2:44 then down to 2:36/7's.  First day in about 10 days I felt remotely myself.  2 mile cool-down.  (8 miles)

Thur 4/5 - Needed to time girls track workout, so running was limited today.  Got in some before practice and part of warm-up.  (5 miles)

Fri 4/6 - Good Friday. No practice.  Got in run around CL toward library and back.  Did low 6:00's on return.  Felt pretty relaxed, but was starving due to light lunch. (8.5 miles)

Sat 4/7 - 1 miles warm-up / hurdles (limited as I had to talk with athlete).  3 mile tempo run.  5:11, 5:13, 5:14.  Pleasantly surprised by today's effort.  After days of sickness it was nice to feel good.  Still nursing a slight sore throat and sinus issues, but definitely better.  Followed with with 8 x 200m at around :31-pt to :32-pt with cutdown rest of 50-50-40-40-30-30-20.  1 miles cool-down.  (6 miles)

Sun 4/8 - Day off.  Still not 100%.  Throat very sore again today.

Total Miles for Week = 45.   Another down week overall, but much better than last.  Still feeling effects of cold and sickness.
