6:30 pace strides

Brewery 10-mile Race. This was the exact pace I was aiming for! So, yep, I'm very happy. Best time in last 4 years. Perfect race conditions really helped -- dry streets, cloudy, mild breeze, 33 degrees. Thanks to my consistent training as of late, I felt comfortable during a lot of the race; whereas last year and year before I was holding on the whole time for dear life. I also feel very good post-race.

Felt great for this Run. Amazing what a Rest Day and hydration will do!

Took a full Rest Day yesterday.  My Run on Sunday was terrible -- I was sweating profusely, despite it being 32 degrees out.  And had to stop several times, which is very out of the norm for me.  Turns out I was dehydrated and fighting a virus my wife had earlier in the week.  I really should know better than to let myself get run down and dehydrated!! 

Yesterday I drank 3 liters of water yesterday, a ton of gatorade, limited my caffeine to one coffee, and I rested -- as in feet up true rest.  Watched 3 movies.  I love movies :)  

We'll give it an easy go today, indoors, and see how it goes.

The last 7 weeks has been the highest volume and highest frequency (Bike/Run) Training Block I've ever done in Dec/Jan.  And this Block compares too my Ironman builds by volume; not distance, cause Zwift has a lot of climbing!  By frequency and volume hours alone I exceeded my July Ironman Build for cycling (24.5 Bike hours in December - Crazy!)   

This week is a much-needed Rest - slash - Taper week.
