Again?

Well, after much internal debate and input from my fellow TWL'ers, I've decided to put all of my training to work for me again by running another half on September 28th. It's in Newport, only 1 stop on the PATH from me. Thus, I can sleep in my own bed the night before (no more unpleasant hotel rooms for me this year) and go through my normal pre-run routine. Also, the entry fee is only $22! What have I got to lose? I really feel like I can go under 2 (as long as this summer weather doesn't stick around another 3 weeks), and I miss my training! I'm going to attempt to jump back into my training schedule at week 7 and follow it to HM #2. Rinse and repeat, right? I'm also going to slightly up my training paces, as long as my body allows. I want to try and get as much as possible out of these extra 3 weeks. I promise to pay close attention to my body, and if it feels like it's too much I'll hold off for the next one. I really want to get one in before the cold weather comes. Anyways, enough rambling. It's time to jump back into training again! I'm pretty psyched.

M (9/8) - Rest day. I enjoy that Mondays are always SRD's on this schedule because they are hard enough as is.
T (9/9) - 1200m warm-up, 2x1200 @ 8:20 (600 recovery), 4x400 @ 7:53 (200), 4x200 @ 7:53 (100), 1200m cooldown (6 miles total). Core workout.
p.s. It's the 2nd anniversary of Pete & Me! We are going out to dinner at a yummy steakhouse :) Also have drinks to celebrate my boss's 20th Anniversary at our company. The two combined will force me to get everything in before work!
W (9/10) - 3-4 miles, depending on how I feel.
R (9/11) - This was the hardest workout of the training schedule, in my opinion. But, I knew when I got through it that I had really accomplished something.
1/2 mile warmup, 4 miles @ 8:45 (800 recovery), 800 @ 8:20 (400), 2 miles @ 8:45, 1/2 mile cooldown (8.25 miles total), core workout. I know I have to get this in before work, too, or else I will find some reason to put it off.
F (9/12) - Rest day.
Sa (9/13) - 6 miles + 6x100m strides
Su (9/14) - 12 miles, which I'm already looking forward to.

Total for the week - 35-36 miles

I'll update as to how this week goes. If I can get through this unscathed, I feel like I'll be in good shape for the Newport race.
