Hi Folks,
This will just be a quick update. Last week was a cutback week so I reduced the mileage down to 41.7 from the 54 the week before. You may think this is quite the cut, but it wasn't a normal cutback week since I capped it off with back to back half marathons. I'll get the recaps of this up soon.
Mon - 2.3
Tues - 2.3
Wed - 5.22 (slightly up tempo instead of normal interval workouts)
Thu - 3.38
Fri - 2.3
Sat - 13.1 - North Country Trail Run
Sun - 13.1 - Wine Country Trail Run
Weekly Mileage: 41.7
Monthly Mileage: 167.75
Let's just say as a sneak preview - both the halfs featured very hilly courses. I was surprised in what I achieved. I didn't run either of them all out, but still did well. I'm not nearly as sore as I expected to be today. Hopefully tomorrow brings more of the same.
You were wise to do the bigger cutback last week. You had to rest up for your back-to-back halfs, and at this point in the cycle, you most likely did not lose any fitness at all. Looking forward to the recaps.
ReplyDeleteI think the halfs added to the fitness they way the courses were.
Delete167 miles for the month?! Holy crap!
ReplyDeleteCrazy I know right? Still another week left in the month. 200 here I come!
