8/4-8/17: 106 & 110 miles/week

These past 2 weeks went very well.  My fitness is improving, especially when I did the hard 18 miler I noticed myself getting into the "zone."  On 8/24 I am racing the Annapolis 10 Miler.  The goal is to get sharper and this run will help me do that, and get a week off from another 20-25 mile long run.  10 miles sounds like a sprint to me now.  I want to run this so I get the effort in, I don't really care about time, plus its a hilly course and the times will be slow.  Nevertheless I am looking forward to running hard.  Should be fun!
