Week 8 12/31-1/6

I ran really low mileage this week because of my ankle.  I only hit 59 miles, but I biked another 30+.  Hopefully next week goes way better. (more…)

Week 7 12/24-12/30

I went a lot lower on mileage this week only hitting 78, but it was a great week. I ran a good workout on Christmas and capped the week off with a solid 10 mile race. I averaged 5:30 pace for the race and my legs were a little dead during it, but I felt great running it. I’m ready to run 100 again next week then head back to school and get ready for Mizzou.

Week 6 12/17-12/23

Well I was able to run just over 100 miles this week in 10 runs and 6 days like I had hoped.  After back to back 20 mile days and working 7 hours a day I was starting to get a little worn down, but I took the next day easy and moved my double to have another 20 mile day before my recovery day and it ended up turning out good without getting me too tired.  I’m glad I can now say I ran 100 miles in a week.

Week 5 12/10-12/16

I finished of the last week down in Rolla before break pretty good.  All of the runs were at a fairly fast pace, and on Friday I ran a really good tempo.  The only bad part of the week was that  I cut my long run short on Saturday, but I still managed to hit 70 miles in 7 runs.
