- SubT 3 x 10 mins
-- warm up
-- intervals @ 4:23-24
-- cool down
run around midday and school is back in session so had to do on streets instead of track, i.e., with terrain/elevation change. slower than i've been as a result. on the plus side, less boring.

warm and humid but not hot and a fresh breeze helped this feel pretty nice.

oh yeah, that's more like it. T+DI 148 but these felt easy. HR never went above 158.

last week: ran five days but only one SubT workout due to baby. highlight was that i decided to do a 2-mile time trial on saturday morning and ran 11:44, which is significantly faster than i thought i'd go, especially since T+DI was 145.

monday

- SubT 3x10 mins

tuesday

- run 32 mins, 5.7 km
baby woke us up every 90 minutes all night, wife had to basically shove me out the door to even do this much.

today

- SubT 54x6 mins
-- warm up
-- intervals in 4:14, 4:16, 4:17, 4:12
-- cool down
legs dead, baby slept better last night but i'm still recovering from two nights ago (/the last month-plus). we spent the night at my in-laws' out in the country so this was also on a paved trail with a slight but noticeable slope. second and third reps were uphill. bagged the fifth, just didn't feel good.

eta: also have my first migraine in a while today. not the worst one ever but it is not fun and it feels bad not to be fully able to help with baby etc.

just adding a little distance. wife expressed some concern at long runs getting too long and leaving her too much time with baby. need to be careful and considerate, occurred to me on my run today to downshift the A race this fall to a half so that long runs don't have to be quite as long.

yesterday

- SubT 5x6 mins
-- warm up
-- intervals @ 4:10-12
-- cool down
nice. warm and sunny but not too humid and a good breeze kept it pleasant. HR averaged mid-140s to mid-150s on the reps and topped out at 163, which is right on the money.

today

- run 55:42, 10.42 km w/4 x 10s hill strides
warmer than yesterday but still not that humid. strides rather than sprints at the end.

back in the grey zone on intervals.icu as of last weekend, good stuff.

thanks re: newborn! actually most thanks to my wife, who is very encouraging about keeping up training despite herself still not being healed enough to do anything more challenging than a couple of walks per day and some light core work. i did finally skip a day yesterday because the lack of sleep caught up with me and i felt drowsy all day.

and yeah i'm doing the intervals mostly on a track; on a ~1.3 km loop when the track's closed. it's fine, i'm not expecting them to be mentally stimulating. just whining, lol.
