2000 km of Training Week 11: 1315.9 to go

Sun: Rest
Mon: 13.8/1:02:33/4:31/Mach 11 My first try using the Garmin for an interval workout: 1.8 warm up then 3k X3 with 1K rests. Went well at first, but got pretty tired and was afraid of doing damage to my knee, so backed off for the last interval.
Tue: 12.5/57:59/4:38/Evo Thought my legs would be more tired from the intervals, but they felt good. Had a late meeting, so tried to get home quickly and was surprised by the pace!
Wed: 19/1:31:32/4:49/Evo First time running the long route with not only not having issues, but also adding mileage and feeling good the whole run. Surprising considering it was my third day of running in a row and that I the previous 2 days were relatively fast.
Thu: Bike 33K
Fri: 18.2/1:24:44/4:23/Mach 11 My first time using the Garmin for a workout: 3K warmup, 10K tempo at 4:15-4:30, 3K cool down. Was a bit annoying because of all the beeping it made when I was running too slow at first and then too fast during the tempo at first, but helped me to keep it reasonable. I was surprised at how comfortable 4:15 felt, and actually added a couple of kms on because there was a guy running in front of me that I wanted to catch. I did catch him eventually, and while he did put up a fight for a bit, I was able to leave him behind pretty comfortably. Actually, what I really wanted to do was chat with him and see if he was interested in running together because our paces were similar,  but my shy and competitive sides won.
Sat: 18.2/1:26:40/4:45/VFF Legs were a bit tired for this one, took it slow and tried just to keep the pace comfortably under 5:00. A little soreness on the inside of my left calf afterwards, which has not happened in a while, but it went away within 24 hrs. I did get a bit of a stomach bug this night, and wonder if it was from getting chilled because I wore pretty light clothes with no wind layer.

Total mileage: 81.7 Good to get it up over 80k! And was very happy both with the pace of my running and how well my body reacted. Will ease back a bit next week and then see if I can do the same or more again the week after.
