Whew, what a week! Hit a PR for weekly mileage & made all my scheduled runs. The weather was fantastic with Spring finally making an appearance. Unfortunately this also means a lot of rain, which makes getting in some trail running harder. I really need to find a trail that drains well, one that could be ran a day or two after rain. My favorite trails usually take a long time to fully dry out.
Wednesday's workout was a beast. Did a 4 mile warm up, then 10 miles at marathon pace & finished with a 2 mile cool down. Was really slogging through the cool down portion, likely close to depletion. Surprisingly my legs weren't totally dead during Thursday's shake out run.
Saturday's long run was accompanied by some of the warmest temperatures we've seen this year. The 20oz of water I had just wasn't enough & by mile 15 I was dry. Either need to pack more for these or go earlier when it's a bit cooler. Sadly only got in one run with the kid, she suffered an ankle sprain on a field trip. Hopefully she'll be back in action next week. 7 weeks till Nashville!
