Weekly Sweats: Hits, Runs, and Errors

Let's start this week's post with a progression that gave me a bit of a chuckle this week.  On the left, my neighborhood park in early April.  On the right, my neighborhood park now.  Don't worry, there are plenty of other signs in the park, but it's a good example of things not going to plan.  Speaking of which...

My plan for this week: drop my mileage and hit speed training with a vengeance.

The reality for this week: Holy Heatwave Batman!  I dropped my mileage like a bad habit and that's a fact.  Here are the hits, runs, and errors that went down for 23 miles of running

Weekly Sweats: Have I Gotten Faster?

This was a hard week with some good running mixed in.  26.5 miles of running and two weight workouts.  I finally have some data to support that I've gotten faster, and I'm going to ramble my heart out about what's working for me now.
