Training Week 3/3/14
The goal this week was to hit 60 miles running. We have had the Catawba Run Around (CRA) on our schedule for a few weeks. This is a loop of the AT from 311 to Dragon's Tooth Parking Lot, North Mtn to the Catawba Valley Trail, down to 779 (good place for aid from a staged car), up Andy Layne, and then the AT back to 311. See all the details here - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/457288430
3/4/14 - Very cold 6 mile run and 1.5 mile cool down.
- Went to the gym at night and did 30 minutes on the stepmill at 142 HR (2740 steps) and .5
mile cooldown.
3/5/14 - 8.75 mile run at the Cove. Ran Songbird, Tuck-a-Way, and 4 Gorge.
3/7/14 - 5 miles around Raleigh Court
3/8/14 - 31.25 miles on the CRA loop. Snow on North Mtn and lots O' mud going up Andy Layne but other than that it was a good loop at a respectable pace. Set out with 6 guys. 4 did the lite version stopping at 779 with 18 miles. Matt and I finished up the loop. Heading up to McAfee's was a tough climb.
3/9/14 - 4.3 miles of random running to get in my 60 for the week.
Total for the week; 60.3 miles running

Training Week 2/24/14
This week is the Explore Your Limits 5k & 10k. It is always hard to get in the training on race weeks.
2/25/14 - Ran the 6 mile loop in 46:09 at HR 142. My running times have gradually come down while using the 142 training plan. The first run was on 1/14/14 at 48:04 and in 6 weeks that time has come down almost 2 minutes. I can tell that my pace at 142 is improving every week.
2/26/14 - Ran at the cove. 4 gorge, down the fire road to the end of Songbird, ran Songbird and out on the road.
2/28/14 - EYL course marking 6.5 miles.
3/1/14 - EYL course cleanup 6 miles.
3/2/14 - Ran 10.5 miles in the morning and then 4 miles later in the day.
Total for the week 45.5 mile running.
