HPb week 15

Sometimes life (and the weather) gets in the way. Lower mileage than I wanted, but I'm not too worried since I had some good quality workouts, including a good speedwork session on Tues, two good hill climbs on Thurs, and a great long run on Saturday.

Also found a way to squeeze in 5.5 hours of yoga during the week. Including 2.5 hours straight hot yoga on Sunday. That was rough, thought I was about to start hallucinating at the end of that session. Very slowly undoing 19 years of tightness that running has inflicted on me.

Anywho, the rundown:

Mon AM - half the incline (see post below); 4 miles, 1:23:13

Tues AM - 6 miles with the morning PPRR crew, 53:00. Middle 28 minutes were a very hard tempo run around Bear Creek Park.

Wed PM - very easy 4.7 miles in 49:33. Would have liked to go further but wanted to help with the PPRR newsletter stuffing.

Thurs AM - 5.5 miles around Section 16. Just under an hour, the first time I've ever gone that fast for this loop.

Thurs PM - six miles up the Incline in the blizzard of '09. 1:44:18.

Fri AM - 4.3 miles around Manitou in 40:13. Had planned to go longer but the snow just crushed my will. Where the hell is spring???

Sat AM - CRUD long run. 18.4 miles in 3:19:55. Very long climb to start things off, then lots of plowing through snow.

Sun AM - Incline Club. 10.5 miles around the Garden and Intemann in 1:51:21. Still sore from Saturday so I took it real easy.

The stats:

Weekly distance - 59.4 miles
Weekly time - 11:41:26
Average pace - 11:48 per mile

2009 distance - 787.4 miles
2009 time - 143:08:14 (5 days, 23 hours)
2009 pace - 10:54 per mileaverage
2009 daily mileage - 8.8 miles (2009 totals through March 30)

Looks like a good variety of runs for the week. I hope things warm up for you soon.
