Didn't sleep well the night before so I was a little apprehensive when I started the run. Felt good until I got to the turn to head back, then I started feeling hungry and I couldn't shake off the hunger until a mile away from home. Got caught in the rain on the way back, hmmm noticed my cadence is down, could just be an anamoly and I'm also tired. No aches or pains and I reasonably lengthened the distance for the week.

Wk2 aerobic base easy recovery <145 bpm
Since this past Saturday I've been getting by on roughly 4-5 hrs of sleep a night and I'm now feeling very tired. Tonight's run should have been last night especially after Sunday's LSD. I think I ran too fast to start the week and was suffering for it today. I took it very easy, not worrying about the pace, but I can tell I'm exhausted because my HR was spiking from 130 to 200 bpm and I know I wasn't anywhere near a hard effort, especially on the way back with a strong SE headwind. I'll try to get back on track with sleeping and I'll carry on with a couple more days of easy recovery running.

Wk2 day 3 aerobic evaluation
1 mile warm-up in the 137-149 bpm range. Then 3 miles in 147-157 bpm keeping a consistent progression with the last mile and a bit back down to 146-149 bpm cooldown. Felt good at the start and had no struggle in the 3 mile progression with the cooldown I was feeling a little ache in my right achilles so I slowed it down more so I don't feel completely bagged at the end of the run. Feel good post run with minor aches that will feel a lot better with the rolling stick.

Wk2 aerobic recovery day 4
Last night's evaluation run took a little out of me and I was feeling a little achy today from the office. My body knew I had to run in zone1 so I didn't spike it close to 150 bpm and I'm happy about that. It's starting to show me I'm learning about controlling my pace and I'm understanding what a true recovery run is all about. During the start, I was feeling aches in my right hip and my ankles were flaring, but after some steady mileage, the aches started to go away.

Wk2 aerobic base day 5
This run felt pretty good, especially after the recovery run the day before. Nice warm at 1 mile @ 134bpm, then the next 5 miles between 8:50 - 9:00/mi @ 151bpm and cool down last mile to save my legs and strength for the next day. No real aches or pains, although I will admit the last mile I slowed down considerably, partly because my feet were hurting a bit and just a wave of exhaustion which I'm sure is due to a lack sleep over the past week.

Wk2 aerobic 10 miler base run <150bpm
Wow, this is one of the closest things to my best training runs to date. My legs seemed to have an extra pop to them and I was able to keep a decent leg turnover and keep my HR in the aerobic zone. I'm surprised by my pace as I did not focus on that during the run at all. I'm starting to understand the mechanics needed to keep moving forward at an easier pace. The drive from the hips to knees as I'm moving forward and the toe off that creates that whip effect. If I can capture that feeling and bottle it, but I can't so I'll have to work on that consistently. Feet are tingling, but I'm pleasantly exhausted and will be ready for tomorrows LSD.

Wk2 LSD First the humidity then the rain and of course the hail
It was very humid heading out and I found a new route that has rolling terrain then my normal route to Kildonan park with one lap and an out and back would make it just shy of 14 miles. But then the rain started coming down very hard as I was heading out of Kildonan park and then the hail came down even harder. Had to hide under a tree to wait it out. The run back got a little tough with the humidity and I cut the run short at mile 13 and picked up a Gatorade at the corner store and walked it back home to cool down and rest my legs. Had to remove my HRM strap at mile 10 as it was cutting into my abdomen and giving me an akeloid scar. :(
