AM: 5 easy. Only got about 3 hours of sleep last night so legs were a little tight still from last night. Just ran a bit easier and thought about training, still way faster than 99% of the paces I've ran at this year. Was planning on doing 7, but during it I thought about my weekly mileage I planned to do and realized it was probably too high, I'll need to sacrifice the mileage to add things like weights and workouts into the equation, so 5 is all I'll be doing most mornings. Don't worry, the mileage will still be high enough to make sure Conner, Mike, Yasir, or Jason never get that #1 mileage spot again once I hit the full miles next week ;)

no run in the PM; woke up from my nap and it was raining torrentially which continued about an hour so I knew Hilton park would be a huge puddle. Hopefully not the case tomorrow morning. I def can suck it up and run anyway, but it's not a hard week. Gonna do something faster tomorrow morning, maybe some uphill 400's.

Also getting woken up by the sound of rain, just rain, kinda serene. Felt zen-like. SOTD is ummmm A Life in the Day of Benjamin Andre - Outkast

My bigger weeks are coming. Probably starting in December and January and into March. I doubt I’ll be much higher than last winter’s peak of 113-115. But right now I’m planning a 33.5-mile ultra in April and I’d love to flirt with a few around 120 or so.

I still remember my first 100 mile week in 2013. I think I was 5th on the mileage board :-)

If you haven’t take a look at Jake Krong’s (Jake K.) blog. He ran some huge mileage for many years. Lots of other good stuff on there too.

It seems like it's about to be that way again, where 100 is only good for 5th, as soon as you and Mike get up to the 100's again. I've read Jake's blog many times, it's inspirational for sure but seeing as he was focused on the marathon and I want nothing to do with that distance for the time being I don't find much in it to incorporate into my training. I do wish I could have been born 5 years earlier so I'd be running this mileage in 2014 around when he was in his prime, I'm sure we could have had some fun battles for who could run the most in a week.
