Training Week of 4/11/11

Feeling recovered from the 4/2/11 mtb race.
4/12/11 - 7.75 mile run - Ran my 6 mile loop in a 6:55 pace. This was in very heavy rain and in some places ankle deep water. Felt good and didn't go all out. Probably a 85% effort.
4/13/11 - 6 mile run at the Cove. Legs are a bit sore from the run yesterday. Ran the road to Buck, up Buck, and down Hi-Dee-Ho. Ran Buck pretty hard and then hammered down Hi-Dee-Ho. Legs were really sore on Thurs.
4/14/11 - 8 mile mtb at Explore Park wearing my chainsaw pack (the weight has a great training effect). Got out to do some trail work. Cut out 5 trees and cleared a lot of debris.
4/15/11 - 7.1 mile run at Mariners Landing following the SML 4 Miler. Very hilly out there.
4/16/11 - 8 mile run from the house to the Roanoke River Greenway and then back through some of the Raleigh Court neighborhoods. 7:38 pace with a HR ave of 134. Good run.
- Went out for a 20 mile road ride shortly after the run. up Starlight to the BRP, up Mill Mountain, and then back home. The wind was high and made things a bit challenging at times. The legs felt alright considering the ride was post run.
Week totals: 28.85 running, 8 mtb, 20 cycling.
