The last week of the year. What to do?
12/26/11 - Road biked 45 miles today. Montvale, up Goose Creek Valley Road, down 43 into Buchanan, Lithia Road to route 11, into Troutville, left on Mountain Pass, 460 to Day Creek and back to Montvale.
Goose Creek Valley is one steep climb. The legs weren't ready for that.
12/28/11 - 7.85 miles of running. Up Gauntlet, fire road, and down Trough. Got some extra miles waiting for the group at the top.
12/30/11 - 20.15 miles running - From home I ran down to the greenway at Vic Thomas Park, took that to the Star Trail Trailhead, ran Woodthrush, Chestnut Ridge Loop to scout the trail for the Frozen Toe 10k, had a short meeting at the Church (race headquarters), finished the CRL, ran the trail down to Fern Park, back to the greenway and home. A mix of Road and Trail for a 7:50/mile pace.
This was the last training run before the 1/14/12 Swinging Bridge 50k.
12/31/11 - 4 miles of running. I ran a 3.25 loop to Fishburn park and did 3 laps on the PH track.
1/1/12 - Rode biked to Green Hill Park, Harborwood, Wildwood, and home.
28 miles of running and 75 miles on the road bike.
I like getting in my long run on a low running week and supplementing that with the road miles. Helps let my joints recover from the long run while getting in some good aerobic workouts.
Bye Bye 2011. Here are my 2011 Totals compared to 2010:
2011 - Run 1550.55, Mtn Bike 565.75, Road Bike 1061.
2010 - Run 1645.9, Mtn Bike 542.05, Road Bike 944.33
