Things I noticed this week: hot yoga is way harder when I’ve already ran 4 miles that day. Sometimes school takes priory over workouts. I had an online test to do this week so instead of going to the gym after work on Thursday I took my test. My original plan was to run at lunch but I had a training session at work so I had to skip it then, too. Ah, well. My legs and mind needed a rest day anyway.
Saturday’s long run went well, again! I did the loop again, this time with average pace UNDER 10:00/mile! This makes me very happy. Now I just have to do it backwards with that pace. 😉

You are rockin’ those long runs! Have you found that doing marathons has made you faster when running shorter distances?

nope, last fall when training for my first marathon i got REALLY slow. I wasn’t focusing on speed at all so all my runs were very slow and steady and i was struggling to keep at 10 minute mile pace. my fastest 5K time is an 8:15/mile, a pace I haven’t seen in years since i started running long distance. but i’m hoping to focus on speed this fall and aiming to run a half marathon in 2 hours!

I find yoga after my runs on Saturday tough too. This is a flow vinyasa class – so I guess it’s a bit more dynamic than the rest but I still go because I feel so much better after it.
