Better week

As last couple of weeks have been a bit low decided to do some higher k's this week and get that last 30k run in.

Week in summary 87.1k Avg Pace-4m49s

Mon 8k@4:54 Recovery run

Tues 14k@4:55 Wore new pair of Nimbus, looking at maybe using these for Marathon

Wed 8k incl 6k@4:23 pace, bit slower than tempo but quicker than marathon pace.

Thurs 8k500m@4:58 Recovery run

Fri 5k500m incl 3k@4:19 Was intending on doing more but just wasn't in the zone so decided to give up. Had deep tissue massage in the afternoon which relieved some of the back tension I had had and good workout on the legs especially the hammy and the itb's, jeez that hurts.

Sat 13k on hilly course incl 8k@4.15 tempo pace. Was quite warm and struggled with the pace on the hills. Overall quite happy though

Sun 30.1k@4.59 Just wanted that last 30k run. Stopped a few times to give the hamstring a stretch as was quite tender from yesterday arvo's tempo session.

Anyway, pretty happy with week and will now look at doing a lower week this week as concentration now turns to taper and speedier sessions.
