This week’s goal – Train injury free. I am altering my schedule to eliminate the speedwork and concentrate on Tempo and MP runs, as long as the calf and shins hold up. Attempt at MP run on Sunday.

Weekly Summary – Sunday’s run was not good. After mile 1 I picked up to an 8 minute pace, then 8:27, then 8:13, so I passed on the MP workout. Finished the session in 3 hours and 38 minutes about 30 to 40 minutes slower than usual. The winds were gusting at better than 40 MPH after mile 6 which hampered my pace but the real problem was: I was zapped.
