This was week 2 of using the Arthur Lydiard training plan. Once again, a very good week in training. I seem to be getting stronger and stronger, whereas last week I got pretty tired at the end of the week, I felt pretty good all week long. It seems like I am running further in the 1 hour and 1.5 hour runs than the previous week. Also, I was able to get some good fartlek training in two times this week, Monday (5) and Wednesday (10). Saturday's run went really well and I was not that tired after running for 2 hours. My plan is to probably boost up the Saturday long run to 2.5 hours next weekend.
Once again, GREAT week!

Monday: 58:52/7.3 miles/out-30:46/in-28:06(5 fartleks)

Saturday: 2:00:22/14 miles with Allen

My times seemed to be pretty consistent this week. I did a pretty good job pacing this week as well and my out and back times seem to be pretty close. Also, this week I ran in the morning time as opposed to the evenings. The morning runs seem to be much better for me, so I will try the morning runs again this week. My training runs this week also had more hills as opposed to the previous week.
KEEP RUNNING!!
Nothing better than a good run! I've been running for over 30 years and find myself enjoying it more every run. Running marathons is a thing of the past for me. I'm extremely proud to have been able to complete 14 marathons. These days, my goals have changed and I have enjoyed running 1 1/2 marathon a month. Woot! Running 3-4 times a week is good enough. Spending time with my wife and kiddos, Juliana(14) and Jessa(13) are priority for me these days. GR8FL!
