Winter Returns!

April 11-17

Monday: 4 miles; 2 miles @ 6 minute pace but could not manage any further
Tuesday: Ran west of town and back; 7 miles; felt slow and sluggish
Wednesday: Didn't run; shins sore
Thursday: 4 miles; 7:17 pace; windy & cold
Friday: Didn't run; windy and snowing and slushy and just did not want to run in these conditions
Saturday: 5 miles on bike trail; 7:09 pace; cool and windy but felt pretty good
Sunday: 2 miles easy @ 6:54 pace; just trying to break in some new racing shoes and it was cold!

Total Miles: 22

Definitely not the mileage I was looking for this week but I had some shin soreness and decided to do less rather than more and hopefully feel better in the coming weeks; not to mention the weather in the 2nd half of the week really sucked so it was a good week to take a little time off. Signed up to run the River Rat Half Marathon in Yankton this Saturday morning. Should be a fun race. Main goal is to run first half @ 7 minute mile pace and then drop down to 6:50-6:40 pace for the 2nd half.
