Chicago Week 10 Training

As expected, this week ended up being lower in miles than my aggressive schedule said, but it was an OK week.

• Monday - took a day off to recover from Sunday's fast miles
• Tuesday - a 5.5m tempo at 6:28 pace. Was planning to run a few more at pace but bathroom issues stopped that!
• Wednesday - 2 easy runs at either end of a very hot day
• Thursday - went to the track in the late afternoon when it was 90+ degrees. ran one 1200 and then just did a few 400's and called it quits
• Friday - hilly 14 for breakfast, and an easy 7 in the evening
• Saturday - super hilly 20+ miler
• Sunday - another day off
• Total 70 miles

Now I just have 2 big weeks before tapering satrts. Schedule says 100 and 90 for next 2 weeks but I'll keep it down around 70-75 - I do plan on doing the speedwork properly though (need to get out early befoire the heat sets in), and will be doing a 5k or 10k at the end of September.
