Week 3 - San Francisco Marathon Training

Well, I didn't reach my goal of getting runs done in the morning during the week. I did, however, still manage to get in the miles and quality workouts I wanted. Best of all, this was a minor 'step-back' week. So, I feel well rested and ready to continue building mileage next week!

Week 3 Summary:

• Total Mileage: 33
• Average Pace: 9:16
• Goals Achieved: 6 of 6 (yay, first week getting everything in!)

Week 3 Details:

• Monday: Rest Day
• Tuesday: 8:45 pm - 5 miles (9:03 pace) - 2 solo miles and then a 3 mile group run. 
• Wednesday: Rest Day - unplanned. I started watching Gone With the Wind and, whoops, it was 11pm before I knew it.
• Thursday: 
• 4:45 pm - 6.5 miles GMP (goal marathon pace) run and BOB run (8:47 pace overall) - I left work a little early and took the BOB to get baby girl from day care. I didn't quite hit the pace I wanted, but I give myself points for pushing the stroller =) (note, I probably looked goofy running with an empty baby stroller for 3.25 miles!)
• Friday: 10:30 am - 4.5 miles (8:35 pace) - Interval workout, 4x800 with 0.25 between. Intervals @ 3:31, 3:32, 3:27, 3:27. Happy to be back on the track.
• Saturday: 8:30 am - 7 miles (10:17 pace) - group run
• Sunday: 
• 9:30 am - 10 miles (9:18 pace) - long run, finished with 1.5 miles at GMP (8:30) and felt great.
• 3:45 pm - strength training session (I really need to get these in during the week)
