rainy weekend

i didn’t run on saturday. call me a wimp but i really didn’t feel like running in the rain. instead, i caught up on some stuff around the house and even got in a nap.

by sunday i was a bit restless from not running the previous two days. i headed out for a 7 miler in the rain and came home soaked in a few ticks less than 58 minutes which is about 8:17 pace.

this morning i headed west on the glacial drumlin and doubled back for 8 miles in 1:06:20 which amounts to 8:17 pace. (deja vu, eh?)

here’s an update of my weekly mileage breakdown in preparation for marathon #20…

wk 1 – 52 miles
wk 2 – 50 miles
wk 3 – 46.5 miles
wk 4 – 54 miles
wk 5 – 57 miles
wk 6 – 56.25 miles
wk 7 – 45 miles
wk 8 – 70 miles
wk 9 – 30 miles

honestly, i prefer looking at monthly miles versus weekly miles. the reason for this is displayed in week 8 & 9. just because i ran two long runs within six days it looks like i had a monster week. the next week i ended up only running four days, which looks like i was a complete slacker. that being said, i do wish i had gotten in one more twenty miler this past weekend.
