Dawn Patrol. Early Saturday AM long run. Weather was frigid with a brutal North wind and intermittent sprinkles for S and Gs. Right foot soreness at the onset, probably due to the blistering pace of yesterday's five-mile maintenance run. Sarcasm is very hard on this thing. Anyhow, today's run was pretty uneventful until the eleventh mile. With Rage Against the Machine blasting through the headphones, I took my eye off the ball for a brief moment. A sprinkler head on the edge of the sidewalk took advantage of my lapse and attacked. I hit the grass, luckily. Unbelievable. Other than a banged-up left knee and a right flank issue, I think I'll be OK. Finished the 11.08 miles in 1:51:42 for a 10:05 min/mile pace. Sunday off to rest and recuperate my sore body. 5-6-5-14 planned for next week. Two workouts at the gym, as well. Cheers. Aloha.
Week Eleven:
21.19 miles (188.53 for the training period)
