Tuesday Training Update
Week 9 & 10
Week 9 & 10
I realized I didn't update for last week. Week 9 wasn't spectacular, maybe that's why? The only run I got in was my weekend 4 miler. It was cold. Like, I'm wearing gloves cold and it's too early in the year for this!

Week 9 Total Miles: 4.16
Week 10 my only goal really was to get my back to back runs in. I know, I have lofty goals!

Then on Saturday I mustered the courage for my 6 mile run! This is by far my favorite distance! I normally feel really good running a 10K. Plus, I get to run on the trail in our town, which is nice and shady and the majority of my run is there. It's so peaceful! I get in to my groove when I'm running there.

Overall I was really happy with my pace on Saturday. I've been running 60:60 intervals, which seem to be working well for me and allowing enough recovery time for my knees, but still allowing me to keep a decent pace. My knee was a little sore at the beginning, but that seemed to work itself out in the first half mile.
Week 10 Total Miles: 8.69
I've adjusted my long run schedule on the Galloway plan to work my way up in mileage, but to take it a little easier as well so that my knee will not hate me too much. Ok, I'm hoping it doesn't hate me too much!
