Had a great week. My body has adapted very well to the 100 mile weeks and this week I added a track workout of 5 x mile which surprisingly went very well. I just wanted to get a good workout in that challenged me enough to get that threshold pace back. I'm also happy with my long runs-I've hit 20+ mile long runs every week for the past 4 weeks, and one at 22. I'm also finding that I'm closing fast in all of them, starting at 7:00 pace and finishing in the 5's somewhere. My average ends up being right around 6:30 pace. For now this is where I need to be and I will gradually be introducing more quality running as the fall season comes in. I think I am going to do the Kentlands 5K as a pre-race tune-up for the Philly Half like last year-but it's certainly a race I could care less about PRing-it isn't an easy course, and I'm not training for a 5K. Nevertheless, it's a good tune-up race to get the race legs going.
