Ran my Boston prep route this morning.  Another beautiful sunny day in the AK!  My legs were tired and a little tight from yesterday's workout.  I still threw in 6 x 30 sec. striders at the end.

Had a fun workout today. Todd List is helping me with getting a little more speed this summer and I plan on running a 10K and 5K this summer and get my 1/2 marathon time down in august before my fall marathon.  Here it was:

3 mile warm-up w/ striders
4X (2 min hard, 1 min easy, 1 min hard, 30 sec easy, 30 sec hard)- 5K pace
4 X 200m @ 1 mile pace
1.5 mile cool down

Easy recovery pace on the turf at South.  Felt good and it was another beautiful day in paradise.  Super excited for my daughters dance recital tonight!!!!

Ran in my Hokas again and on the turf field. Talk about a nice surface!  Started easy and ran at General Aerobic pace.  It's a lot of circles, but want to recover 1 more week from Boston.  Ran the last mile on the actual track in 6:15 pace.

5/14
10 miles (4 @ Tempo)

1/2 day at work because of graduation, so I was able to start my run around 11:30am today.  It was my first workout since Boston.  I did my tempo miles between Huffman and Dearmoun and they felt ok.  I kept them around 5:35 pace since I didn't want to push it.  I also ran in my Hoka's since I left my trainers at work yesterday.  I felt pretty good and it was nice to know my Achilles is pretty much all healed up!

3 mile warm-up
4 miles @ Tempo (5:35 pace avg.)
3 miles @ General aerobic (6:30 pace).

5/13
5.5 miles

Easy after work tonight.  I work the Hoka's for the first time and they felt great.  I'm thinking of using these as my recovery running shoes.

5/12
6 miles

Super easy recovery pace on the field turf at South.  Another beautiful and sunny day.
