2006 week 7 mileage ending 2/18/2006

2/5/2006 through 2/18/2006 totals: 36.22 miles, longest 11.64 miles.
Year to date: 209.79 miles.

Started taking allergy meds this week. I’m continuing to feel tired and sluggish most of the time, and am performing well below my logged data from the past couple of years.

On the positive side, I’m making steady progress against this year’s starting measurements, and slogged through an 11+ mile, 2 hour run this week, a new high for the current training cycle.

I had been planning for an hour on the treadmill but kept going (was watching Ben Bernanke presenting to Congress, which went on and on). It’s good to know I’m easily able to run in this range at the moment, but my paces are still really slow right now, 9:00-10:00 most of the time, and I’m never reaching a point where I feel like I’m warmed up and running well, even on these longer workouts.
