Another rest day?

Friday, January 28th, 2011:

Day mileage: 0 miles
Pace: NA /mile
Where/How/Who: Nowhere
Weekly mileage: 17 miles

Yet another rest day. Work. Overnight call. And lingering hip pain.

Saturday, January 29th, 2011:

Day mileage: 6 miles
Pace: 8:17 /mile
Where/How/Who: Along East River/Easy run/Alone
Weekly mileage: 23 miles

Easy run along East River. At some point had to run on slippery ice and slushy snow. Ended up jumping out of the riverside and running up and down First Ave. It was a Marathon course in reverse.

Sunday, January 30th, 2011:

Day mileage: 15 miles
Pace: 7:42 /mile
Where/How/Who: Around Lower Manhattan/Long run/Alone
Weekly mileage: 38 miles

This was a good long run. See map above. I needed this after the three-day break this week.

I started slow and gradually sped up. Great sunny day (I was running mid-day). First real long run of 2011.

The mileage for week 4 is 38. That means I have not increased the mileage this week. (Good thing given the pain).
