Long run yesterday -- ~100 minutes at an easy pace. Felt a little rough for the first hour, but you won't hear any lame excuses from me. I'm not married, but you wouldn't hear any from my "wife" either. Striders and stretching afterward.
Coach has a track workout planned for later today. I'll try to get on this pm and post how that went.

Saturday: with kids at the track. At the end of their romp, 10x400m, 200 fast, 200 slow, that's all i had time for.
Sunday: beach.
Monday: 65 mins on a very dry park (like sandpaper on soles but no hassles), way too dry, needs some rain, i mean sunny and cool is great but the park needs rain...
12 @ 7:35 pace (sweet!)
34 minutes easy. Nice weather today...good autumn feel.
Injury returned - attempt 4 miles easy tonight. :(
No running: yard work with the mower and rake. The first skirmish in the annual "War of the Leaves".
This will go on at regular intervals from now until the last leaf is disposed of, with extreme prejudice, and not all the trees have changed color yet.
(sigh)
This could be a long War, this year.
Thanks to special, the point, orange, Hammy, Methuselah, and Yank for your positive contributions to the thread. There's nothing "The Troll" likes less than to see us succeed in the face of his multimonikered hate posts. Let's keep this thread headed in the right direction!
As suggested earlier, I did do a track workout yesterday. It was similar to the one from last week: 6 x 1200 @ ~102% vVO2max with equal rest. Following the cool down, Coach gave me another one of her "special" massages. Damn, it just feels SO good! She's got the magic! Will likely do a recovery run today. I'll let you know.
Keep up the good work, all!
Hahaha....
Hey RD, I'm bored today, so I'm going back to compile your last week for some discussion purposes, eh? :)
Give me a few mins.......
What RD has told us lately:
Oct 6 = 4x1000m at 3k pace after some ilness and injury.
Oct 7-12 = easy track and road sessions.
Oct 13 = 7x1000m at 105% vVO2max, equal rest.
Oct 14 = 100min easy.
Oct 15 = 6x1200m at 102% vVO2max, equal rest.
Does anyone have any questions or comments for RD? :)
Cheers

65' trail run with 25' @ tempo pace
Yesterday, no run.
Today, (Tues.) 42:21 windy day. AHR 143 MHR 155
35 minutes real easy on grass just before work..
No run today: donated blood.
Thanks special, vic, the point, and Yank for your positive contributions! It is nice to be able to have a mature and focused rapport with you.
As expected, yesterday was a recovery day for me: 60+' easy with a few striders and then some lifting and stretching. I have been feeling much better and believe I have finally put the injury and illness behind me. I'm going to ask coach to ramp it up a bit. Here's hoping she'll oblige!
Good luck to all!
You're welcome. Day off today.
Hey, it's warming up again! Not too bad, but what happened to autumn? 35 minutes today and striders.

This thread has become my daily laugh at letsrun.
1200s and 100s during illness and injury, eh? :) Am I really the only person on this thread who sees daily BS? What if some young runners BELIEVE this, and the 2:03 800s off 45sec rest? Will there be a possibility that some try to emulate the great Running Dogg?
That's why I still bother.
