Feeling Strong

AM :: 6 x 500m Hills, 10mi :: Steady, Hard aerobic workout
PM :: 5mi easy

I'm stacking too much of my mileage over the weekends and I'm starting to feel like a recreational runner. Once my sleep pattern sorts itself out and I'm able to get to bed a decent hour, I think I'll be able to fit more in during the week. This week I ended up falling asleep on the couch after work, waking up, and going right to bed; the end result was close to 8hrs sleep and I felt ready to roll in the morning. I need more of that. I have a 15miler at a steady pace tomorrow that I'm looking forward to because I think I'm going to head out to the trails, which will give me 30 solid miles in two days. This next week should be a great week for training though because the rest of the team is in China, which means I'll be able to get everything done in the office without interuptions. 9-5 is kind of a luxury right now that I'm going to take advantage of.

This afternoon I took advantage of a great record store out here that I've somehow never visited. They have a truly overwhelming array of new and used music on all types of media so I browsed for quite a while. I picked up a few more U2 albums missing from the collection as well as some other random stuff, including a few compilations from South Africa. I managed to get out without going too crazy so it was a good day. I'll be back for more next month.

Off to bed. Too much to do tomorrow to be tired.
