Didn't run today. With Natalie gone, I didn't get time by myself to sneak in a run. Not a big deal. I knew this would happen, that's why the long run on thursday. With a five mile run tomorrow, I can still manage 30 miles this week. That will make 3 straight 30 mile weeks, albeit the last 2 less mileage than 3 weeks ago. I'm going into unchartered territory with my mileage. Three weeks in a row at +30 is a first. The 40.6 miles in the last 7 days (ending yesterday) are a new record (barely). This type of mileage in the past would have had me injured, so the fact that I'm not feeling much pain anywhere is such a blessing. Ha, also a 1st!
Next week is a down week for me. I really want to push the limit and shoot for that 40 mile "calender" week (Monday to Sunday) but with a race on Sunday and the injury free running, I'm going to play it smart and make next week a rest week. Of course, I've still got 5 miles tomorrow.
