Speeeeeeed with a dessert of cranberry/cinnamon Chevre on garlic bread

5 x 800 with 400 jog in between. 4 miles in 34:40!!

Started with a 400 at 6.1 mph, then did 800 at 7.5mph (8 min/mile pace) repeat 5 times!

The first one was tough. Each one got easier and by the final 2 sets of 800's, i kicked up the pace to 7:40!!! These were all on the treadmill. Ugh, Im ready for a nice run outside! Tomorrow, tomorrow, you're only a day away!

did 100 crunches, and 30 push ups.

Dinner was leftover Chicken in the Garden

AND Garlic bread with leftover cranberry/ cinnamon chevre goat cheese on garlic bread.
I CANT let that delicious stuff go to waste.

MMMMM


Can't wait to go to road runner sports this weekend and get a new supply of Cliff Shot Bloks. I cant get down GU, and while I love GU Chomps, their packaging is less than desirable when running. The Bloks are better especially when you cannot think of anything else but one foot in front of the other and other crazy hallucinogenic stuff when out on a long run. Cliff Shot Bloks come in a more activity friendly package for eating on the go. For runs over 10 miles, I also use the SaltStix. One capsule every 5-6 miles. and 3 Bloks every 6 miles. With the bloks and the stix I havent experienced cramps or hitting the wall. Perhaps i've just been lucky.



Cheers!
