March 26th through April 1st

Monday-6.4 miles with the dogs.  4+ with Riley, the remaining 2+ with Lulu.  Wore an old pair of Asics 2000s to mix it up and loved the cushioning.

Tuesday-6.1 miles with the dogs on a chilly morning.  Saw JV!

Wednesday-6.7 miles.  Warmup with Riley for 3.3 miles and then did 3x8, 3x4,3x2. No more than 40 seconds of jog rest. Effort based. Left IT tight. Solid workout and ran them at 6:00 minute pace including the rest.

Thursday-40 minutes of mobility of stretching.  I need it!

Thursday afternoon-PT session #10.  The therapist informed me my mobility is the best it's been since I've been getting treatments.  I'll take it..hoping for more forward movement.

Friday-14 miles at an average of 6:34 pace.  It was a nice feeling to know I didn't have to pump out another really long one.  I was hoping to get some pace work in but my plans changed due to this weird congestion/gagging issue I had when I started my first set of MP miles.  I settled down, coughed up some stuff, and regrouped.  Ended it like this..3 miles at around MP (6:24, 6:36, 6:24), I mile E (6:42), 2 miles at T pace (6:15, 6:13) and 2 miles E(6:43, 6:29).  Perceived effort is a funny thing.  I finished the run before the rain really started to come down.  It was a humid one though.
Enjoyed the rest of Good Friday and Shara and I took H for a 2 mile walk in her wagon in the afternoon.

Saturday-6 miles@ 7:19 pace.  Family Stroller Cruise on a nice spring day.  Pushing Haley back up hill from the beach was no joke but good fun! Looking forward to more of these.

Sunday-6.5 miles @ 6:20 pace.  Went on an Easter Sunday cruise with the dogs and they were cruising. Even dropped a sub 6 mile. Felt good and was moving well. 

Weekly Mileage: 46 miles

Synopsis: 2 weeks to go until the big show.  Running Boston has always been a dream of mine and it is now coming into view.  From here, I'll be slowing things down and will start the waiting game.  It's a good time to work on planning and logistics but too soon to get nervous.
