Wednesday Workouts!
Been a while since I have started this thread. I had a good early morning run (11:00am) :) Lately, I have been getting out during the hottest part of the day at 2pm or so.
Anyway, I have a trail close to my house that has a pretty good hill and lots of rocks. To the peak is .5 miles from my driveway without going down the other side which would really suck because it's STEEP. Anyway, I kind of had a recovery day with a total of 1.3 miles on the trail. Yesterday, I had great workout with 3 mile repeats and I actually able to complete what I started which has been rare in the heat.
What did you do today?

I planned a 3 mile run for my dinner break. Turns out I forgot to pack my inhaler AND my sports bra. not sure which I missed more when i got out there and it was 89 degrees with building humidity.
I ran 2 miles, walked a 1/2 mile.

3.2 miles this morning...not going to lie, my hands were cold for the first 1/2 mile or so...and it was like 78 degrees out...i like being "skinny" and not having any insulation..it's kinda nice! :)

The extra rest day did me good. I nailed my hill repeats today on the treadmill.
5.75 miles total, including four 5-minute intervals at 4% grade in heart rate zones 4&5.
I was soaked by the end, but was able to complete them all without a whimper.

Mine was a 4-mile run again. All 4 at 6.8 (with the last .25 at 7). Maybe I'll get my running legs back... Hoping to get into the water tomorrow (if there isn't a water class when I'm ready).
Off the subject, I've spent the last 1.5 weeks getting some insight into hospital pharmacy. The only thing I don't like is the shifts (I got a little spoiled at my job) but it's pretty interesting and I'm glad I have the opportunity to check it out.
