I am new to this and don't know what I am doing so if people see this let me know if I am doing this right :)
I had a 6.5 miles recovery run at a 8:06 average pace. I did the hobblecreek half marathon 3 days ago and my calves were a little tight but it felt good to run.
So this morning I did my regular 6-7 mile run with my running buddies. Our average pace was 7:53. After reading some other blogs I am feeling running inadequate :) I never ever do speed work and I only run 3 times a week. I do other forms of working out but I'm thinking if I want to step up my running game I might want to bump it up a bit?!? Any suggestions?
I finally did sprints! I only did them for 30 minutes but I never do sprints so I felt good with that. I stopped because my calves are still not fully recovered from hobblecreek. They started cramping up so I stopped and hopped on the bike for 20 more minutes. I don't know my exact pace but I sprinted every other minute and jogged in between sprints. (I just did them on the treadmill). I think my sprints averaged between 5:45 and 7:00 minute miles.
Long run day. The runners kept dropping like flys. Started out running 3 miles by myself (to get my dog out) and then met 4 of my running buddies. We averaged a 8:15 pace. We started out with 5 girls and only 2 finished. It was not a good day for most :) With that being said, we finished our long run and that's always a good feeling.
