8/6/11 (Saturday) Activities

Today I ran 6 miles in 45:50.  This was just my normal outside run.  The first mile is fairly level maybe a .5% incline in a few places, the next two miles have a 1-6% incline (6% incline is short-lived, it is mostly 1-2% which mimics the marathon).  My favorite part is coming back, which is mostly all on a slight downhill.  I am trying to practice having a strong final mile and running that final mile at marathon pace or faster (which would be 6:52).  Today's final mile was done in 6:47 : )

After changing and getting a quick snack for energy replacement, I cycled 26.48 miles in 1:22:41.

Total running miles for week = 48
Total cycling miles for week = 42.84
