F - Su: OFF
I took F off for the cramp and then the weather got really cold and windy and I was worried I was getting sick.

Week: 31M

I want to get the workout I missed over the weekend in this Monday and then follow this weeks schedule as you laid it out, but with the long intervals and long run switched. So I'll do 5 x 1000m Monday, 8M Thursday, and 3 x 1600m Saturday. Do you think that'd be a bad idea?
