Week ending May 29th

I know I just wrote about how I love how simple running is. I still find myself trying to complicate it as much as possible. Hence my training log and accompanying graph:

And, here's all those numbers in a graph.

I've always thought that to run a fast hundred-miler you need to have a few weeks where all your runs add up to 100 miles. So, I have some scheduled in August. We'll see how I'm feeling, my weekly milage might peak significantly below that.

Mon: 7.5 (Squaw Peak) + 1.5

Tues: 4

Wed: 8.5

Thurs: 6.5 (Top of Y mountain)

Fri: 7

Sat: 8

My favorite run of the year, so far was Thursday's trudge up Y Mountain. Got up to the top in 1:15 from the parking lot. Ran down in the dark making shin-deep post holes in the snow without socks, water, or a flashlight. Awesome.

WEEKLY TOTALS

43 miles; 9,250'
