Thurs - AM: 10.5 miles (1,200') easy. Bluesky/Indian Summer out and back with Slush and Sarah. Mad hail storm last night, wet and foggy this morning. Nice conditions for running, but legs were totally flat.
Fri - Noon: 6 miles (600') easy. Valley.
Sat - 30.5 miles (3,700'). Mount Evans.
Sun - 9.5 miles (2,200'). Ran the Horsetooth Trail course in reverse with Slush and Sarah to cheer on friends running the race. Fun morning.

That pretty much wraps up the Western States training. Nothing much left to do but jog around and drive out to California. In New York for work through Wednesday, so pretty much forced to take time off with a very packed schedule. Didn't find any time today to run and tomorrow isn't looking much better. Hopefully I'll be able to find an hour to hit up a lap around my old stomping grounds in Central Park, but not banking on it. Squaw next Tues/Weds.

ReplyDeleteBeen following your training and it sounds like you've got yourself into top shape. This is the stage and I think you're going to kill it. See you out there.
