11.5 miles

It's been a little over a week since I last ran. I got sick with a cold last week and then it turned into a sinus infection. I really needed to get out and run, but it wasn't a good idea to go this far. Once I got going I couldn't stop. My knee hurts a little now. Probably not anything to worry about.

This was a light week and I had some trouble motivating myself to get out. I decided to do a workout that I skipped last week. The plan was to target 43s for each 200m. It was dark so I didn't look at my watch and just ran by feel. I'm surprised that it was pretty consistent. I've never been good at pacing by feel. At the end I thought I felt pretty good and was thinking of resting and then adding on a fast 1600m. I jogged for about 6 min and then started. After the first 400m I knew I wouldn't be able to maintain for all four laps and dropped the goal to 800m.

Next week I really need to concentrate on getting at least 35mi and running every day.
