Total Mileage: 83mi
Elevation Gain: 4400'
Cross-Training: 6mi (walking), 2 core workouts
Goal: Run as much as I can after taking two weeks off.

Wow, 83 miles. This was just a bit more than I figured I'd do in my week back from leading the backpacking trip. I started the week with a too-fast 15 mile road run, and spent the next couple of days running through the soreness caused by my aggressive return to training. But after that I felt great and cruised to my highest mileage training week ever.

I ended up getting two speed workouts in this week, as well as two long runs (due to running a long run on Sunday and another the following Saturday), and added core strength workouts back to my routine after pretty much skipping them in May and June. Ending the week with 26 miles out and back on the Wakely Dam course was perfect and got me very excited for the race on July 27th!

Looking Ahead: Three weeks to go until Wakely Dam. I'll try for another big week before starting to taper.
