Wine & Dine Training Log – Week 3

Training Log

Week three can be summed up by the term “Getting Back on Track”

What was Week 3 supposed to look like?

  • Tuesday – 4 miles Easy, then 4 sets of 20 second/2 minute intervals
  • Thursday – 1 mile Easy, 2 miles fast (average pace between 11:00 – 11:20 min/mile)
  • Saturday – 4 miles, Easy (average pace between 12:10 – 12:30 min/mile)
  • Sunday – 7 miles, Steady (average pace between 11:20 – 11:40 min/mile)

What did week 3 ending up looking like? Well – life got in the way, but I was able to shift a couple of workouts and only skipped one, just to give my body a break between two pretty tough workouts.

 

  • Wednesday – 4 miles Easy, then 4 sets of 20 second/2 minute intervals
  • Friday – 1 mile Easy, 2 miles fast (average pace between 11:00 – 11:20 min/mile)
  • Sunday – 7 miles, Steady (average pace between 11:20 – 11:40 min/mile)

I know the importance of easy runs in a training program, but this time I felt it more important to skip the 4 mile easy run to have fairly fresh legs for that 7 mile run. Now that I have gotten most of the training runs in last week, I feel better about getting myself back on track. Now I am just counting the days until I can move these training runs off the treadmill and back outside!
