Interval Week

I did not do a long run this week, opting instead to do 3 days of intervals. I'm trying a different approach than last year. Last year, I put tons of distance in, and threw in some speed and intervals for good measure. I did ok... but, I'd like to do better, so I'm experimenting with doing less, but doing more quality workouts. This week was tough, but I feel ok, and I'm ready for next week! Interval 3 was the most difficult for me (shortest too) - I was very sore by that evening! I was still sore when I started my intervals for today, but feel really good now that I worked out the soreness!

A fun thing I did with my kids today - The Colony Kids Chase by the Lake - a 1/2 mile fun run for kids... my 5 year old daughter came in 5th, and my 9 year old son also came in 5th!
