Hundred Minutes

The weather cooperated better this week for running, but even as such, I only completed one weekday run (Monday). I went out Wednesday night and had planned to run Thursday night, but things did not work out. I did 50 minutes Monday night.

Saturday I decided I'd try to do 100 minutes (5 more than last week) unless I was making much better time than last week (in which case I might cut it off at 95). I completed the first four miles in good time, but after the fifth I knew it was unlikely that I'd be beating last week's run. So I decided to add in some extra hill work for the additional 5 minutes. Not sure I really needed extra hills, but it was a convenient spot to add to the run.

Overall, I completed 10.7 miles. I would have preferred 11.1 (a 9:00 pace), but I can accept 10.7. My plan for the upcoming week is to keep the weekday runs at 50 minutes and the weekend run at 100. Hopefully I can more distance in the 100 minutes next week.
