Running With LeMire

5 easy miles on Monday to workout the legs and revocer from Saturday's fast workout and last nights men's hockey game. In last nights game we won 5-2 and I had 2 goals, 2 assists for a total of 4 points on the night. This was my last last hockey game of the season since we are a month out from Boston. Hopefully the team can keep the ball rolling and and win 2 games without me so we can play in the championship game the weekend after Boston.

Hoka Gray/Black; 6 miles

This mornings workout was a total of 6 miles, 2 warm up then 4x800 with 2 mile cool down. The 800's went like this: 3:06, 3:03, 2:56, 2:55. My legs did not feel fresh today but these are the first 800's I have done all year so I think they went pretty well cnsidering there was also 15mph winds that half of my 800 loop was running directly into. At least I know if the wind is bad in Boston I can still run fast.

6 easy miles on the treadmill this morning. First mile I ran it with the 2x4 under the back to get downhill running in and strengthen the quads for the last push of Boston in just over 3 weeks. Then the rest was just ran at an easy pace since I decided not to run outside. Weather was 18+mph winds, light rain and feel like temps ar 32 degrees. Figured it was a good day to take it easy and just get a few miles in on the treadmill.

Hoka- black/gray: 20

Did some mental preparations for this run and thought I would try my 10 goal pace miles at 6:40/mi and see how I felt after that during the last 5 miles to closeout the 20 mile run. The goal pace miles went suprisingly well and I felt under control and could talk throughout most of them except the last 1 which we pushed hard at a 6:10 mile.
