Mmmm... Blueberry Waffles for Breakfast...

Go USA in the Women's World Cup today!!

Yesterday Bella, Pete, and I did our 5 mile recovery run together. Felt much better than last week, even though Bella was on a tear the whole 5 miles. She wavered between 6:30 and 7:30 (this is just an estimate as I don't use those Garmin gadgets). We spent the rest of the day at the beach, but we left Bella home because she likes to kill crabs and bark at them the whole time. In fact, this morning she found a crab in the garage, tore it into pieces and rolled all over it on the kitchen floor.

Today's run was 15 with 10 miles at marathon pace. I don't actually know what my marathon pace is but I'm guessing 7:00 for now. I didn't time the whole run, only the 10 miles. Total time was 69:21. I stayed on 7 min pace basically the whole time, but my last mile was 6:35.
My 1.5 mile splits were:

10:27.63
10:19.24
10:28.31
10:33.96
10:25.12
10:34.31
6:35.49
Total 69.21

This week's summary:
Monday: rest
Tuesday: 8 miles and 10x100 (9 total)
Wednesday: 12 miles
Thursday: 5 miles
Friday: 10 miles
Saturday: 5 miles
Sunday: 15 miles
Total: 56 miles

PS- This was supposed to be a recovery week, but I needed to make up for the marathon pace run that I missed last weekend when I was being a pathetic lazy ass. Hopefully it won't affect this coming week.
