Week 6 - Training Report

• M: Start w/Liz one mile, then Columbia and back, 6.8 mi.

• W: No running (too tired). Ate pizza, etc. all day long, not good!
• T: Columbia, Riverview, Snowville loop. 5.1 mi but challenging hill.
• F: Rest
• S: Joined “Vertical Runner” group. Originally, I was going to run with the 7:30 am group for 12 miles. But the kitty woke me up at 6 am so I decided to join the 6:30 am group. I did 5 miles with the first group and them 11 miles or so with the 2nd group. Normally, I would be done at this point, but I made a new friend, Mark, in this 2nd group. Mark wanted to run 5 more (slower) miles at the towpath. I decided to join him. This brought my mileage to an unplanned 21 miles! I forgot my Garmin watch so I don’t know the mile splits but some miles were as fast as 8min/mile or faster, while towards the end we had slowed to 9:30 min/mile. Overall, it was a very nice run!
