AM-Easy/medium 5 miles this morning. A little better this morning but a good taper is definitely in order.  Saw some bare chested guy moving down 7th at a pretty good clip. Caught up to him and and held pace for a bit before turning for home. If that was his daily training pace I wonder what  his speedier runs are like!

PM-No run instead worked on some other things on the honey-do list.

AM-Mid long progressive run 13 miles with 4 at MP progressing to LT effort for 4 more miles. Going by effort and intensity and trying not to focus on any specific time. Not feeling sharp but not feeling flat either so a bit of an improvement again which is where I want to be at this point.

PM-4 miles easy jog on grass.

AM-10 miles on the treadmill progressive again.  The 80 % mhr turnpoint felt like it was at about 10.3-10.5 mph.  Next time I'm going to take an HR monitor on a workout like this one.  Overall I felt really strong and confident about this workout especially after doing a hard day yesterday.  Double hard days work well for me if done right and it feels like I'm getting stronger now over time.

PM-No run tonight. Short recovery jog planned for tomorrow.

AM-4 miles with a pick up in pace.  No time. 7th east out and back  So much for a recovery run..  Felt good this morning so I went with it. 

PM-6 mile progressive run on the T-mill.  (34:56) .5-1% incline.  Keeping the intensity up a bit higher this week while cutting back volume. Hopefully this will bring me to a peak by the 24th.

AM-12 miles total. Took it into the gym for 6 miles to take off some of the impact and then ran home.  Kim took care of my my legs for me after and massaged out some really tight areas.  So grateful for her small acts of kindness like that:)

PM-No run. At work until after nine bells tonight and all I could think about was hot food and some sack time..  I wanted to be around 70 ish miles for the taper this week anyway.
