Training Week of 1/14/13

Following the Willis River 50k I feel pretty good. 
Sunday I went out for a 4 mile run and 13.1 easy road bike ride.
1/15/13 - 7 mile road run.  6 mile loop at 8:30 pace and 1 mile cooldown.
1/16/13 - Ran 6.6 miles in the rain at the cove.  Road to Buck, Brushy Mtn Fireroad, and down Hi Dee Ho.
1/18/13 - 7.2 mile run to the greenway and back.
1/19/13 - 11.2 mile run on back road towards Lewis Gale and back (8:00 pace)
1/20/13 - Finished the week with a snowy/icy 11.6 mile run up Poor Mtn.  Got in about 1.5 miles before the snow started covering the road.  From here it was snow and ice.  By the time we were getting close to the top it was powdery in places and the top had been plowed for a unobstructed .7 mile slog to the top.  If you haven't run up this mtn. it is one of the hardest climbs around and it gets worse at the top.  Great views at the top.
Ended up with 43.5 miles of running this week.
