Half-marathon training – Week 10 – Triple sport Saturday

Week 10 started out a little rough as I came down with a head cold a few hours after last Sunday’s long run. I ended up staying home on Monday and Tuesday (with the exception of Monday night’s rockin’ Bon Jovi concert) getting over the cold. So I moved Tuesday’s run to Wednesday and skipped Wednesday’s usual cross training swim. That’s the first time I’ve missed a workout since week 2. So for week 10 I ran a total of 19 miles (4+4+4+7).

I have to admit that my 7 mile run this morning was a little tough. That’s probably because yesterday I ran 4 miles then had softball and ultimate practices – it was a triple sport Saturday. I guess this will continue to be a problem as starting in a few weeks I’ll be playing softball once a week and ultimate twice a week. I may have to do some reorganizing of the training schedule but I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to work it out.
