Running long 1:37:27 [3] 11.18 mi (8:43 / mi) +243m 8:10 / mi
Went for my long run. Distances not as I remembered them growing up. I always remembered them being longer and the hills beeing steeper as well. Funny how reality changes as you age.

Trail Running 1:27:35 [3] 8.3 mi (10:33 / mi) +280m 9:33 / mi
Ran with my brother and my dad just as it was starting to get light out. Slow in the beginning to keep pace with them but split off later on.
I have run in these woods a lot a long time ago, but I brought a map anyway. The map was probably one of the worst that I have used. So many changes and new trails not on the map.
There is an orienteering course on the map too, but not part of the run today.

Running warm up/down 12:01 [3] 1.27 mi (9:29 / mi) +7m 9:19 / mi
Running intervals 5:54 [5] 1.02 mi (5:47 / mi) +1m 5:46 / mi
There is no CSU interval training today, but I did not want to take a total break from doing intervals, so I went to Danehy Park. I haven't done intervals there before, and I have to say it is a very nice track. I did 4x400 meters:
# split pace
1 1:25.3 5:28
2 1:30.2 5:47
3 1:28.6 5:54
4 1:30.3 6:01
I am pretty happy with the times based on the level of fatigue this week. There were also wind gusts, and the slowest times were when I had head winds. Suprised that it made such a difference.

Running 58:02 [3] 6.61 mi (8:47 / mi) +141m 8:14 / mi
Really really slow today. My legs were very heavy from my long run last Sunday. Surprised that I am still not more recovered. Will try another long run soon, and see if I will recover faster if I keep going this distance.
