16 miles

Out and back to lake A (2x 2.25 miles) + 3 loops around (3x 3.8 miles) for 15.9 miles. Footpod read 15.98 miles. Not too shabby. In fact I'm not sure which is right. Google maps actually gives 2.26 mile there (.02 delta there and back), so .06/3 is just .02 miles per loop difference. I've seen one website call it 3.81 miles around, so... "footpod good" is what I think I'm saying.

Anyway, 2:25:55 was the time (10:52 min/mi). Weather was pretty cool. "Me slow" is what I guess I'm saying here. I'm pretty sure when I up the mileage with this lower intensity, that the times will come down. This week was 3x5, 10, 8, and 16 for 49 miles total. I've sure taken my time getting my miles back up after the marathon. I haven't really thought out where I'd like to get. It's already only 20 weeks until the marathon. The Pfitz 18 week at less than 70 mpw plan starts at 53 mpw. I think I'll very roughly follow that, but without the speedwork. His 53 mile week is 8, 11, 5, 9, 5, and 15. Two runs to work (2x10.5), one lake route (8 mile), 2x 5-miler, and a long run like today (16 miles) sounds like a plan for this week (56 miles).
