Rock n Roll Las Vegas- Weekly Log: February 19 to 25

Big race for me, just didn't go well at all. More details in a separate post. 

Monday: 5 Miles- Camarillo, CA

Shorter run on the camarillo bike paths in a drizzle. 

Tuesday: 11 Miles- Thousand Oaks, CA

Typical newbury park ridge loop, again drizzling. Really glad to switch to this new loop as the second half of trails is much more fun than what I was doing in the fall. Plus it's a great rain loop whereas the other trails will get really muddy. 

Wednesday: 12 Miles- Thousand Oaks, CA

3 mile tempo uphill on typical loop in 17:50/5:56 average (5:32 GAP). Solid but a bit flat. 

Thursday: 10 Miles- Agoura Hills, CA

Shorter cheeseboro. 

Friday: 8 Miles- Thousand Oaks, CA

8 mile loop from Peppertree + strides. 

Saturday: 5 Miles- Henderson, NV

OAB on a bike path. Good to find a park but also nowhere near as nice as the one I ran in Morgan Hill before the fall halfs. Like some other pre-race runs, 6:40s felt effortless but still a little flat/heavy. Not concerning because not too different compared to before fall races where I ran great, but it'd be nice to feel a little better. 


Sunday: 16 Miles- Paradise, NV

Not sure whether to put the race under Las Vegas or Paradise as starting location is Paradise but all the buildings have Las Vegas addresses. Anyway, see other post. Rock n Roll Las Vegas half- this was a complete disappointment in nearly every way and I've erased it from my memory. 

Weekly Total: 67 Miles

Weekly Highlight: None

Weekly Lowlight: Putting a lot of time, money and effort towards a good race opportunity in Las Vegas and completely squandering it. 

Movies Watched: The Killer
