Saturday was the Ted Corbitt 15k race in Central Park. It was two loops, neither of which included Harlem Hill, but they both featured Cat Hill. I finally managed to run a race with a sub 7 mile pace, which I was super happy with.
During the race itself I felt pretty worn out. I think a string of consecutive 40 - 50 mile weeks were starting to wear on me, so I'm taking a recovery week this week and cutting back to 20 or so, all a light effort. Hopefully that will leave me feeling fresh to start the 18 week cycle in preparation for Jersey.
Had a lovely run this morning, felt great after two days off. Kent Avenue was a bit of a nightmare, but we managed to find a bit of clear ground to run on. M. and I picked up a bit at the end, but kept it conversational and loose. It was 7 total miles for me. I can already tell I'll be chomping at the bit by the end of the week.
