2016 Training Log : 3/14 - 3/20

Quality: 16 miles with 10 at marathon pace on Wednesday. 20 mile long run on Saturday.

Trail: 12 miles at Capitol View Park on Friday. 8 miles at Skullbuster on Sunday.

Easy: 5 runs for 25 miles.

Cycling: N/A

Total:  9 runs & 0 rides for 81 miles.

Another record mileage week. I seem to be getting used to this amount of mileage, not nearly as tired as last week. I even felt pretty fresh following the long run & my tempo run, which due to the gusting wind was more of a marathon effort run. I can run through just about anything weather wise but constant strong winds seem to just drive me insane. Of course I'll be begging for a breeze come mid Summer.

I was also fortunate for a dry week weather wise, allowing me to get some trail time in. With Spring coming to the Bluegrass I love being able to watch the forest wake up from its Winter slumber. It had definitely been a while since I had last visited CVP, so I was stoked to get some miles in there. Mountain bikers are finally coming out of hibernation as well, which means I have to pay more attention during my trail runs.

Next week calls for more of the same, then a down week, then a super peak week & finally the taper!

Come on down!
