Vacation runs

I took a few days off from work this week and managed a visit to the seacoast, and a couple of good workouts.  A 9+ miler (most miles around 7:30ish) punctuated by a swim in the very cold Atlantic Ocean on Thursday (after a short easy jaunt on Wednesday) was followed by a 3x mile track workout on Friday.  5:29/5:35/5:37 with 4 mins rest and then a swim after in the (comparatively) warm pool.  That puts me on target for low 17:20's for 5k, which is a great goal for Cigna.

Inclined situps and pushups with a short cirucuit only once a day on the vacation trip, but I added some swimming to make up for the decreased core training.  Four miles walking to the ice cream shop today was not really the workout I had intended, but vacation is vacation.

I am looking forward to racing on Tuesday (local 5k) and Thursday (Cigna) next week.
