I'm going "home" this weekend. My former home, that is. I'm going to visit my parents and brothers in Pittsburgh. I'm staying until Tuesday, so that makes two long weekends in a row. I'm looking forward to seeing the house--my parents had some remodeling done--and getting some rest.
I had another good week of training. I got my long run in Sunday with a good race/workout in the middle. Monday I ran 8 easy miles in the sweltering heat and humidity. I don't think 10 or 11 am is the best time to go for a run in July. Normally I'd run a workout Tuesday, but I was still feeling a little sore, so I pushed the workout back to Wednesday. Tuesday I just did an easy 10 miles.
My workout Wednesday went well. I warmed up to the soccer fields and then ran 4x5 min. around the middle field. I did a little more than three and a half laps per repeat, and I was pleased that on each repeat I ran a little further than the last. The only downside to the workout was the grass was soaking wet and my shoes and socks got wet.
Thursday I ran an easy 8 miles. Normally I'd double today but after softball last night I was up late packing and I decided to sleep in so I wouldn't be falling asleep on the drive this afternoon. I may run when I get to Pittsburgh, but I doubt it.
