June was pretty much a month of training squeezed in among several out-of-town trips. I didn’t ride the bike once.
I did get some new shoes, switching to Saucony Kinvara 3s for the road (LOVE THEM!) and getting a pair of Saucony Xodus 3.0 trail shoes from my wife for my birthday. I did my first trail run on June 30th and am planning to work in some trail runs into the training plan. I also registered for a trail race in August – might as well put the shoes (and me) to work!
Anyway, here are the stats for the month that was June 2012:

Training Program(s):
- I continue using the plan I made using a combination of the Runner’s World Smart Coach app with pace adjustments using the McMillan Running Calculator: Weekly mileage: 25-35 miles a week – Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Weekday sessions ranged in distance from 5 to 8 miles, with the weekend session being the “long run” day at 10 to 14 miles. The plan integrates Easy Runs, Tempo Runs, Speed Runs, and hill workouts.
- On the plan, I added a cycling session on Mondays this month to mix things up – though I was not able to ride at all this month. I’m already back on track in July though!
