Comments Didnt get to sleep until around 2 am, woke up at 830 and had to force myself out the door. Was planning on 12 but was too tired. Managed to get 10 miles with 5 x 3 min intervals with 3 min active recovery jogs. Felt really smooth on the intervals somehow. checked 400 splits for the first half at 78-80 secs, by the last couple sets was coming through in 74-75. Just happy to get this one out of the way. Rest tomorrow

Comments Decided to try and get a workout done at Temple's track this morning after last weeks lack of luck at Franklin Field. Got there around 8 am and of course every lane was packed with 250lb walkers to create a nice obstacle course for my workout. There was also the confused schizophrenic homeless guy yelling at everyone as he walked between lane one and two, specifically at me to give him a cigarette. Thats Philadelphia for you.

4 mile warmup, Workout for today 4 x 200, 2 x 400, 1 x 800, 2 x 400, 4 x 200 (equal active recovery to each item), 2 mile cool down.

Workout was fairly easy with such long recovery. The point is to get the legs moving at a good pace again. Ill start getting into longer tempos and interval work next week.

Sun September 5th - Long Run - 15.83mi

Time of day 8:00 AM
Distance 15.83 mi
Duration 1:44:47 @ 6:37 min/mi
Shoe Air Pegasus (NP27)
Comments Cut the long run shorter this week. Getting bored by myself and knees are feeling beat, as most of my runs are on the pavement. Legs wanted to move faster today than my lungs would let them. opened up the last couple of miles to a harder pace.

To the guy with the waterbelt; stop trying to run with me. I passed you for a reason. Its not worth it to latch onto my tail and breath on my neck for the 45 secs you decide to race. All of these philly morning jogging warriors are vicious.
