2-MILE REPEATS

I ran 3x2-mile repeats in Manhattan Beach with a 4-minute jog for rest. The first rep was on the greenbelt trail, which is wood-chipped. I thought the softer surface would be nice impact-wise on my legs. But it was dark and running fast on an uneven surface in the dark turned out to be not very fun. So the second two sets I did on the Strand down by the beach.

Set 1: 10:43 (5:26/5:17)

Set 2: 10:24 (5:11/5:13)

Set 3: 10:28 (5:15/5:13)

Overall the workout was good, but it definitely shows that I have a long ways to go still to get fit again. I really thought I could maybe average 5:10 on these, but I'm just not there yet. Later after work I did core, hips, pushups, and some leg exercises with loop bands.

10 miles on the Strand in Manhattan Beach, avg pace 6:51/mile. I did a one-mile pickup after about 3 miles in 4:56, took a 4-minute jog, and then did a pickup from the Hermosa pier to the Manhattan pier (1.7 miles) in 8:47, which is about 5:12 pace.

7.15 miles very easy down on the Strand and on the beach and piers in Manhattan Beach. I'll miss the early morning runs in shorts and a t shirt, but I can't wait to get home and see my family!
