8.5 mile run and 4200 meter swim

Wednesday, August 10, 2011

Today’s workouts were dedicated in honor of Diana Godwin and James R. Johnson.

Once again I ran into problems getting to the pool.  Since my primary pool is closed I tried to drive to the outdoor pool on the other side of post and to my surprise the roads were closed from 6:30 to 7:30 for PT and I got there at 6:40.  So I turned around and went back to the office for a run.

I ran 8.5 miles run this morning.  I ran 4 miles at an 8:30 pace and then ran a tempo run for 4 miles with the goal to slowly get faster each mile.  I ran a 7:42; 7:38; 7:35, 7:06 and finished it up with a ½ mile cool down.

At lunch I did 4200 meter swim with the main set consisting of 3 x 400 meters and 3 x 300 meters.  Overall I had a great workout.

Happy Training Everyone!
