The Boston Marathon releases its elite field! A 75 year old Kenyan STUD. And girls benefit from training with boys :)
Wednesday, Feb 9 - 10 miles, 1 mile up, 8 at MP (avg 7:11 according to me, 7:07 according to Crystal), 1 mile down. Another bloody cold day, met up with C at Forest Park, which was inhabited with the other Big River Runners doing their Wild Wednesday workouts. A balmy 16 degree evening with a slight breeze. 10 minutes up, did a 2 mile loop over and over and over and over again. Wasn't too flat - first mile net down hill, second mile was rolling hills, but could definitely feel about 4 miles into it. Got faster as the workout progressed, go figure. Anyways, felt decent and got through the workout, but legs were a little rubbery afterwards. Wings and beer at Buffalo Brewing Company afterwards!
Thursday, Feb 10 - 4 miles - nice and slow - legs were feeling the strain of the last few days, but got through it ok. Got to try some amazing pizza at Blackthorn Pizza - looks kind of trasky at first sight, but a fun place to go! Chicago style deep dish pizza - say no more!
Speedwork tonight, then some excess mileage planned over the weekend...
