Reading Fail.

My race training plan hangs directly above my monitor at work.  I look at it throughout the day.  I look at it enough that you'd think I would know WTF is on my plan for the week.




Nope.

I thought I was doing 3 miles w/ 3 x 200m hills the first week, then 4 x 200m hills the next week, and so on.  For four weeks.  "I am doing so well" I told myself as I patted myself on the back.

Nope.  I was supposed to have started out at 3 mi w/ 5 x 200m hills the first week, then I was supposed to jump to 4 mi w/ 5 x 200m hills last week.  Uh.  FAIL. 

Sure glad I looked at that fancy Coach-Mel plan!  *facepalm*

  1. This is why I don't have a plan, I just run, then I can't mess it up.

    Happy Running,
