Training Week of 8/14/17

8/14 - 30 Minute Cross-Train
My wife had a few meetings at church which left me watching the kids.  She got home late and I just opted to not do anything today.

8/15 - 3 Mile Quality Run
Went with interval training (half mile slow, then half mile faster) and ended up finishing with a 10:37 average which was my fastest 3 mile pace since like, February.  Since I know I was going pretty slow on the slow stretches, I guess I was doing pretty well on the up-tempo portions.  Was able to finish all three miles this time around, too.

8/16 - 30 Minute Core Workout
It was my birthday.  Instead of working out, I had ice cream cake.  I figure a birthday is a good reason to have a cheat day of sorts.

8/17 - 3 Mile Easy Run
Did this on Saturday instead of Thursday.  Wife had another meeting on Thursday and we had dinner with friends on Friday, which bumped my run.  Some 'easy' run, I was running sub 11:00 miles when I was done.  Maybe that's why I felt gassed, although at the time I was quick to blame the humidity.  Ended up doing this run first thing Saturday morning to give me as much time to rest up before the 7 miler on Sunday night.

8/18 - Rest

8/19 - 7 Mile Easy Run

8/20 - Rest
