9/8/07

Sat 9/8 - double, 80 minutes total plus 25 minutes in Walden

AM - 8x3 minutes with 1R on Lincoln Road in Wayland (i.e. the dirt road). Back and forth on a stretch of the road with a gentle roll to it. A controlled effort, based on the fire hydrant that I think is a half mile from the start, they went at about 5:20 pace. Given the continued infernal weather, with a gusty breeze to boot, I'll take it. The short rest ensured that no one overdid it with the pace. Calf a bit stiff on the warmup but not an issue once the workout began in earnest. Hit the wall on the cooldown, tired and dehydrated by that point.

PM - just under 30 minutes very easy to pond and back, with 25 minutes in the water. Calf stiff from the morning, had to tread lightly on it. Hit the water just in time for the much-anticipated late afternoon t-storm which was disappointingly short. Not as cool in its wake as I had hoped, but better than the steambath of earlier in the day.
