Mon 11/20 - PM 65 minutes easy, Area 51.
Tue 11/21 - PM 40 minutes easy, Wayland. Stumbling in the dark along the aqueduct before returning to the school along Stonebridge. Finished up with strides on the turf field, hamstring stuck the whole while.
Wed 11/22 - PM 45 minutes easy, Area 51. Lots of rain during the day made for sloppy conditions underfoot.
Thu 11/23 - AM 65 minutes incl. 5k cross country race. Another visit to Maudslay which is worth the early wake up call and trip. Cold but not terribly windy. Thought I was going to get worked over by the local competition (who it turns out has aged out to the next bracket anyway) after he rolled by me between 1 and 1.5 miles. Hung in there and was able to put him away on the final climb back up to the finish. Yesterday's rain made for some mucky spots, while other areas were frozen solid as a brick. Cooldown with the CH.
Fri 11/24 - PM 50 minutes easy
Sat 11/25 - PM 70 minutes easy, Area 51.
Sun 11/26 - AM 55 minutes incl. 7k cutdown on the track. Original plan was to go longer and do it on the Longfellow loop but both of those things went by the boards. Overall feeling of flatness had a lot to do with the curtailing of this, as well as starting out too quick. Windy conditions didn't help any. Last five laps felt a lot harder than what the watch was saying. Splits by km:
3:52.3
3:51.4
3:49.5
3:46.7
3:45.9
3:42.8
3:38.9
