Marathon Training Week 4

Marathon· Training Plans

12 Jun

Hello! How are you doing? I am still running and eating and sweating my guts out in Florida. Running here is HARD! Much respect to year ‘round Florida runners!! I have had a hard time sticking to a full marathon training plan in this heat. The humidity when I started running yesterday was 90%. Ninety.

Then, it went down to 77%

Let’s see if I remember what I did… I feel like I don’t but here it goes…

In other news – did you hear that Spark Limeade is here?! They released it for a limited time a while back and I missed it before it sold out so I’m pretty excited about it. Did anyone else try it?

      Ohhhh, publix subs. So, so, so, so good. I get one (or four) every time I’m in FL. I think my best workout was a ~10 mile bike ride where the oomph started to finally come back after a long time not riding hard.

      Actually got a 13.1 mile run in yesterday. Very happy with that since yesterday left knee has been giving me fits lately. What you say about humidity is just like what we have here in Houston, which usually means running at 4am.

      I’d like to pick one of my four runs this week but honestly it was my cross training which was done indoors and thankfully, out of the Florida heat!

      My workouts this week have been all over the place due to some work fitness events I was hosting after work. I ended up switching out my normal cross training and strength training for some random workouts at a different gym that seemed to throw my week off. I finished my long run yesterday at a local 10k and it was much harder than I thought it was going to be but I was still able to finish strong.

      My best workout was a 13.4 mile run on Monday. I feel your pain about the heat. I live in TX and running this week has been brutal. I ran 8.1 miles this AM and I thought I was going to melt. I swear I’m going to find the name of the person who invented air conditioning and name something in their honor.
