Nice and easy week to get back into some more regular training. Last Friday got in a 6.5 mile hill run at lunch with one of my coworkers, then turned in a 7.5 miler on Sunday instead of getting out on the bike. That one took about 65 minutes. Tuesday went to the gym and did some weight work and Wednesday got in a 3 mile treadmill run over 25 minutes, followed by 1,000 meters in the pool.
Today will finish with some more weight work, and have the Fall 5 Miler race tomorrow. This race is right outside my neighborhood so it should be a nice morning run. Temps are scheduled to be in the low 40’s in the morning here in Atlanta, coldest it has been in a while. I am shooting for a 40 minute run time which would bring my race pace down to the 8 minute mark. If I beat 40 minutes I will be very happy, but no pressure at all. Just looking forward to a nice run with 1000 of my neighbors and a good technical long sleeve shirt to add to the collection. May try to sneak out on a 3 hour bike ride Sunday if I can work it out with the kiddos.
