I feel very cursed. Getting all of my runs in as planned has not been my strong suit recently. I knew I would be going away for a short vacation soon so I decided to push my schedule forward by a day each day this week. So Monday I did my Tuesday run, which was all good, a little colder than I would like for almost April but whatever. Wednesday I did my Thursday run, which was good. My main problem with this run was I had planned to pack my running clothes so I could stop at the paved trail which is perfect for a run of that length but I forgot my sports bra. That meant heading home, running to the trail, getting picked up with half a mile left and doing the last half a mile at home. Friday I was ready to run, I put on my rain jacket and hat since it was raining and I got going and then nearly two miles in I started to feel shaky. It's not something that normally happens on runs. The only times I've ever had it happen was after my first 10 miler and that time there was a gas leak in town when I was running and I felt lightheaded with being shaky. I got picked up because something wasn't going right and I just didn't want to risk anything. Saturday I put my bike in the shop because it's almost time to start triathlon training. When I went for my run in the afternoon everything felt fine and I did my run as normal.
This week I will be on a flight on Wednesday so I figured I would do my Wednesday and Thursday runs today and tomorrow and then do my Monday run on Thursday since I'll be in a new area and my Saturday run on Friday and then my Sunday run either on Saturday or after I get home Sunday afternoon. Unless anyone has a better way of working it.
The upcoming week looks like:
Monday: 4 mi @ EA
Wednesday: 4 mi @ EB
Thursday: 1 mile WU + 5 x 1 mile @ HMS w/ 2 min RI @ WU + 1 mile CD
Saturday: 6 mi @ EB + Strides
Sunday: 9 mi @ LR
