Weekly Training for 02/18/08 - 02/24/08- Total: ~ 60 miles (6 days).

This week's volume was lower due to the fact I missed Friday's run. It was probably for the best. It snowed all day, I got slammed with work, and it was either treadmill or nothing. I opted for nothing, having run slightly harder than I should have on Thursday's run. Running 10 miles on the treadmill would have most likely done more harm than good anyways. I ended my attempts at recording a fast 5k in the 2008 indoor season by running in this weekend's USATF-NE Indoor Track Championships at Harvard. Another stinkfest that you can read all about when I get to posting the pictures... That to follow...probably tomorrow.

Monday - 5:45pm - (90 min) - medium - 12.3 miles - Andover, N. Andover (roads) with Jon Healey and the Lama.
Tuesday - 12:00pm - Massage - 4:30pm - (51 min) (6.7 miles) - easy - Haverhill (roads) with the Lama.
