« ATM Training Week 1 | Main

Sunday, August 22, 2010

I just finished week 3 of the Army Ten Miler training... well, sort of. I was in Pittsburgh for the weekend and tried to get my long run in at the hotel gym before heading out for the day, only the gym didn't open until 9am. I ended up trading my long run (5 miles) that was scheduled for today with this coming Tuesday's 3.5 mile run. So far, I've done every run under 5 miles in under 10:00/mile pace, which is quite an improvement for me. I have a 10K in September and I'm thinking my goal will be to finish that race in sub-10:00 pace.

Tuesday, August 10: 3 mile run -- 30:00 (10:00 pace)
Thursday, August 12: 3 mile run -- 29:35 (9:51 pace)
Sunday, August 15: 4 mile run -- 39:56 (9:59 pace)
Tuesday, August 17: 3 mile run -- 29:39 (9:53 pace)
Thursday, August 19: 3.5 mile run -- 33:49 (9:39 pace)
Sunday, August 22: 3.5 mile run -- 34:53 (9:57 pace)

I did not get any cross training or strength training in during that time (other than some abs work), so I really need to step that up!
