Week 2: 1/9 - 1/15

Monday: 10.1 / 64 minutes. Probably went a bit too quickly today. First 2 miles were 7:30 pace and then suddenly I'm running 6:20s... closed the last 3 at 17:30. Felt really good today and happy to get the miles in once I woke up.
Tuesday: 10 / 62:40. Ran with Tim starting in Pelham, visiting Windham and returning. The run was fairly hilly with a nice flatter section in the latter half. The pace started modestly but quickly dipped into the 6:30s and then below. No GPS, but my guess is we had some pretty quick miles coming back into Pelham. 6:19 average. Feeling stronger recently.
Wednesday: 8 / 56:30 solo mostly up and around Holt Hill. Had a great view of Boston from the top. The goal was to run trails so technical I'd have to run slower than my hammer fests of late... it worked. Rolled out and tried some new drills with the medicine ball.
Thursday: 7 easy just before work, NT. Called off the workout but happy to get in some miles on this nasty day.
Friday: 9 / 60:00 easy with Matt Germain around Andover in the morning. Lamenting the missed workout yesterday but I have a nice weekend off from work to do something.
Saturday: 10 easy 70:00 calf oddly tight today after the drive to CT to visit Nana.
Sunday: 13 steady 79:43 steady solo on Ridgefield Roads, aka one of the hillier areas I've ever run.

Total: 67 miles feeling pretty strong but missing the threshold work. Intending to make threshold-paced runs a priority, hopefully fitting in 2 efforts this coming week.
