Well it was a bit of a crazy week, but in the end I was able to get in nearly the number of miles I projected for the week. A lot was going on at work, Hillary is in South Africa, had an all day workshop on Sat., rain and the spring thaw washed out part of our road, and I was still able to put in an 11 miler on Sat night in the dark followed by 26 miles the next day. Oh, and we cooked up some maple syrup.
I am feeling a bit tired from the weekend since my alarm went off at 4:45 this morning to get to work and catch up on everything I should have gotten done over the weekend. It feels good to be back on track. Joints, and overall the body feels good. The warm weather (40s!) has been nice, but there is still a lot of snow that needs to melt. This is a down week before climbing back up for one big week before I start to taper for Bear Mountain. It is crazy but the race is just 4.5 weeks away! Hard to believe the trails around here will be passable by then!
I hit 500 miles for the year earlier this week.
