PM: 10 miles with tutoring in between (7/3 split).
Grading myself for week 4:
Mileage (90%)- My mileage is fine and I am on pace for the 80 I want this week. I think it was a good move to lower the mileage this week. The next two weeks will be back over 100.
Speed (70%)- Effort workout on Friday, good speed on Sunday for the long distance, and I am very happy with Tuesday especially going solo. It was nice to hit a sub-16:00 5k workout for the first time in a long time.
I will do another workout Friday, but I am just expecting an effort-based result as opposed to hitting good times. Overall, positive progress.
Nutrition (80%)- Continued with very few slip ups. Recovery macros, water, and electrolytes were great this week. With so many long runs I am shocked at how good I feel each time I get into a longer run, and I truly owe it to my consistent nutrition.
Racing weight (60%)- I again am focused on a reduction in overall calories. Goal weight loss is 4 pounds healthily. Total weight loss- 12 lbs, with 8 lbs to go. Finally under 10 to go!!
