Marathon Training, Week Ten!

Also known as the week I had too much fun...

Sunday: rest day.  Worked and then cooked dinner for my parents at home.  Homemade penne a la vodka with meatballs.  Not really a rest day?

Monday: 4.11 miles in 43:06 (10:28 pace).  Really beautiful night and we took a different route than usual.  Downtown is pretty!

Tuesday: 45 minutes of strength

Wednesday: 6.88 miles in 1:15:05 (10:55 pace).  This was accomplished before work because I was meeting my parents and a friend for wine dinner at Vinci.  Seriously the best deal in the city.

Thursday: Rest day because we went to Ravinia to see Lord of the Rings Two Towers as accompanied by the CSO.  SO COOL!!

This was my first time riding the Metra, much to the amazement of my friends

This screen was seriously high tech

Friday: Unintentional rest day.  So.  Tired. From Ravinia.  Oh!  And drove to Madison for the Madison Mini!!

Saturday: 13.2 miles in 2:24:30 (10:54 pace).  Not the greatest half marathon ever.  But it's done!

Overall outlook: Good!  We're getting into the meat of training, so hopefully everything continues to go well.

Next Up: Warrior challenge in Hawaii!

Have a great week everyone!!
