As previous great weeks have shown, the following week ( i.e. this week) always show a decrease in mileage.
Not a bad week overall with 37.1 miles in & a new half marathon pb on a bad day.
As for the half marathon, I should have easily broken the 1 hour 30 mins mark, but a stitch from mile 1 until the end, and excessive heartburn caused by the most minimal change in a pre race dinner, prevented this from happening.
All in all a pb is a pb, so onwards and upwards from here.
Below is my weeks training:
Monday: 7 miles @ 7:58 pace (tempo)
Tuesday: 4 miles @ 8:43 pace (recovery)
Wednesday: Off
Thursday: Off
Friday: 8.45 miles @ 8:16 pace (general)
Saturday: 4.63 miles @ 8:49 pace (recovery)
Sunday: 13.1 miles @ 6:59 pace (race) & new pb - 1:31:28
Total mileage: 37.19 miles.
