Struggled with the tempo run on Thursday, but completed the long run on Sunday easily. Couldn't swim at all during the week, but I feel I'm getting in shape.

No long run today

Skipped today's long run. Went out last night and prefered running tomorrow instead of today.  11 miles is the goal at Projected Marathon Pace + 45 secs.

Still without swimming pool

The swimming pool at Club Arroyo Hondo is out of service due to problems with the filters. They promised to have it repaired by the end of the week.

This extra rest help me recover quicker from the last week half marathon.

12 x 400 mts

Less than 48 hours after the half marathon, I did this morning the 12 x 400 mts reps scheduled for today. I had to make the Rest Intervals longer than indicated in order to accomplish the goal.

My feet still hurts.

Half Marathon in 1 hour!

We are one hour away from the start of the Hispaniola Lowenbrau Half Marathon. It looks like is going to rain.

Half Marathon Day!

I really like to run the Hispaniola Lowenbrau Half Marathon. This is my 3th consecutive year and I plan to participate every year. The ambiance all over the city is very exciting.

I hope it rains like yesterday, so we can have a fresher temperature. The forecast is 26 grades with humidity levels on 84%.

Day Off!

Today is my day off of training this week. I'm going to the Hispaniola Lowenbrau Half Marathon Expo to pick up my race bag. I'll attend some of the conferences there and shop some gels for the race.

Tomorrow I'll run the half marathon at a 8:42/mile pace, for an estimated finish time of 1:54:00; it's not my PR, but it's the pace indicated in the plan.
