This past week, I managed to run 5 times, for a total of about 22.5 miles, much of it on grass or trails. I had a string of 3 good workouts in a row over the weekend: Friday was 5.2 miles at 8:15/mile on flat grass trails, Saturday was 4.2 miles on a very hilly course through the woods of Houghton, NY, averaging only 9:06 per mile, and then today I was a bit fatigued, and ran another flat trail run of 4.7 miles, averaging about 8:54 per mile. My plan is to try to keep slowly building the mileage, and not worrying about speed workouts yet. And at 52 years old, why SHOULD I worry about them?
