May Summary (26:04)

So May is over, and although it was a good month of training it ends with a troubling achilles injury that I'm hoping isn't too serious.

Only one real race, but a new PR:
-- San Carlos 10k - 42:51 (6:54 Pace)
........7th Place Overall

Mileage
-- A little lower than planned (skipped a day yesterday)
-- Ran 26 times in 31 days (Goal was 27)
-- Average Run 7.3 Miles
-- Average Pace 8:11
-- Average Heart Rate 152
-- 191 Total Miles (new Max)
-- Lots and lots and lots of hills
-- 43 Average Weekly Miles (new Max)
-- 52 Longest Week (new Max)
-- 810 Miles 2007

June Goals
-- Make sure to not screw up my achilles tendon further!
-- Another Big Month!
-- Run 23/30 days
-- Big week of 55 miles
-- Maybe hit 200 for the month (goal is 197)
-- Race1: Palo Alto 10k 6/17
------(Goal 1 - new PR, sub 42:51 6:54 Pace)
------(Goal 2 - sub 42:00 6:46 Pace)
------(Stretch goal - sub 41:00 6:36 Pace)
-- Race2: Oracle 5k 6/21
------(Goal 1 - new PR, sub 20:38 6:38 Pace)
------(Goal 2 - sub 20:00 6:26 Pace)
------(Stretch goal - 19:30 6:17 Pace)

All of this is going to be dependant on how (if?) my achilles tendonitis (self diagnosis) clears up. Way too many hill runs in May and now I'm paying the price. Off to see the sports doctor tomorrow, hoping that a couple weeks with no speedwork and hills is all I need to get back to 100%. I'm a little worried that this could be enough to bugger up my sub 1:30 attempt in July.
