I was on vacation last week and did not follow the prescribed running. I ran on Tuesday for 5 miles (50 minutes), and on Friday for 4 miles (maybe 40 minutes). I missed Monday (was driving), Wednesday and Thursday (was lazy). That’s it. I was not very good in getting up each morning and running as I had planned. Finally I was driving home on Saturday so I missed the long run. So I did my long run (10 miles on Town Lake trail) today (Sunday).
Here is my long run heart rate. I stopped after a few miles when my iPod died (ugh and double ugh). And then I stopped at 5 miles and 8 miles for water. My ankles are still a bit sore and a weeks worth of vacation (that is, minimal running) made me feel sluggish and out-of-it.
