...and I haven't been keeping up very well with me bloggin' Anyway, last week was a fine bit of learning experience. I pretty much trashed my legs early in the week and had to take a day off (DUNT DUNT DUNNN!!) I have a real mental block with days off in general, but after what I know it did for me I can't really argue with the results. After an early week thrashing with Saturday on the hills with the jogstroller in jogstroller record time (strike 1) then NOT taking a day off (strike 2) then running long in the hills Monday and hammering out the dam run on tue (strike 3) then having the audacity to attempt a decent track workout on the same day, abandoning that but doubling the next day with 9 miles 4 am 5pm (strike....., ahh whatever) I was left with but one option, a DAY OFF! The horror. Anyway, long story short, I had a great 12 miles on Saturday as a result with friend Craig who ran for Berkeley and it pretty damn fit, then today I ran a workout he did this past week which went like this:
