Sunday 2

Week THREE MBM training. I’m feeling pretty good. Minimal niggles. ~34 miles per week and ⬆️. I believe I can handle 6 days per week. Also, the hyperice appears effective.

Tempo Intervals

LMLS and MR. 10 minutes up. 2 x 12 minutes at sub 7:30 (threshold) with 2 minutes IR. ~8 minutes down. The level 3 plan called for three intervals of 12 minutes. Justin had to work late so we got started late and it got too dark to finish. It was a good workout.

P.M. flow: 10 minutes of gentle yoga
