Week 7 was a good lesson in time management and juggling a million obligations. Between work, packing and moving, I really had to work to fit in my midweek runs last week. It was hard and I was exhausted most of the week but some times you just have to make time. I didn't want to go without mentioning the week so here I am posting about it after the fact.
Week 7 Highlights:
- Upped my mid-week mileage: I'm now running 4, 7, 4. Takes a little bit of extra planning but not bad.
- Wednesday's run: I decided to run Heartbreak Hill as my last run on the Boston side of the river. It was pretty intense but doable...probably only because I only went 5 miles total. Talk to me if I ever try to run Boston and see if I have the same story to tell when I hit the hill at mile 20!
- Sunday's long run: 16 mile run turned into a 17.8 miler. My running bud and I ended up taking a wrong turn at the end (around 15.8) of this week's long run. I was sure I knew where I was on our map but I guess I was wrong! So, our already ambitious run ended up being epic. By that time I was already losing it pretty bad; low energy and such -- "hitting wall" I guess they call it -- but we made it and we're so pumped about it. Philly here we come!
