Training Week of 7/8/13


Doing body inventory I feel like my training is going well and except for a nagging pain/tightness in my right piriformis/gluteals.  If that wasn't there I'd be feeling great. 
The Catocting 50k is 2 weeks away.  Instead of doing a long run I plan to do 3 runs in a row this weekend with mileage around 8-10 per run.  I'd like to get in 40 miles for the week. 
7/9/13 - 6 mile loop in 41:52 and a 1.5 mile cool down.
7/10/13 - It has been pouring rain for days, so we skipped the cove and ran 6.1 miles down to the greenway to check things out. 
7/12/13 - Ran the 11 mile Lewis Gale Loop at a 7:20 pace.  Felt pretty good.  Tried to keep HR below 150.
7/13/13 - Decided to do a time trial up McAfee's Knob.  We stayed on the AT and got to the top in 41:50.  Went down the backside, to the side trail for water and the gate, and took the fire road all the way back for a 1:19:35 round trip.  Felt good considering the effort yesterday.
7/14/13 - 7 mile run around Grandin/Raleigh Court
Total for the week; 40.2 running miles for the week.
