On Friday I tried a 3/1 and crashed and burned 5 miles in. Had run the first 3 in 25:03 without trying so much. Seemed that changing the rest time from 2 to 1 minutes after so long really hit me hard. Into overtraining I guess, my HR was still elevated on Sunday. This Monday did the first 3 as a 3/2 in a disappointing 26:37. I felt so damm slow and lethargic that I then mainly did a 2/2 for the next 7 miles. 10 miles total in 100 minutes and 46 seconds.

Did 75 one legged partial squats on each leg afterwards. Felt like my weak point has moved to lifting my legs up, so I added a set of sit-ups.

It was too hot here for quite a while. Then it immediately switched to too cold. No sight of the sun for weeks. The heat probably killed the one tree. The lack of sun wasn't so good for the garden. There will be no cucumbers. And caterpillars wreaked havoc on the broccoli. Finally now it's perfect out. Sun is shining. Perfect temp. And I've got the whole week off.
