Countdown to Lake Placid Ironman
Will I ever get to the Boston Marathon again, I wonder? - PS I bought the picture, but lost it, thus this proof. Taken in 2009.
Interesting day, especially how working for just one mile at a harder pace, by hanging in behind another runner, brought my run back to where it used to be, and then I could pull ahead - no more plodding! Guess it’s all in the mind.
Workouts:
Bike: 30-minute strength pyramid, letting cadence go wherever, which was low 70s at the start to mid-70s at the end.
5 min x 80 watt warmup, 5 min x 120 watts, 10 min x 160 watts, 5 min x 120 watts, 5 min x 80 watt warmdown.
Run: 3-mile run on indoor track, mile one steady getting my right calf to let go, which it finally did, mile two hanging in behind a nice steady runner at about 10 min pace, and after saying thank you, which was appreciated with a smile, at mile three I upped the pace to about 9 min mile, and held that steady (note: a 9-min mile pace, for 26.2 miles, would get me to Boston again).
Very satisfied with progress.
