4/3 Tue: 9 mi (1:34, 1,900') McClintock/Mesa to Bluestem - Snowy PM run. Really nice to have a break form the early spring heat.
4/4 Wed: 2 mi (:21) Twin Lakes - Really mellow short run
4/5 Thu: 5 mi (1:17, 2,400') Green Mtn via Amphi/SR/Greenman - The servers were down at work around 2pm, so it was a perfect time to get up the mountain. Perfect weather. I felt pretty strong going up, hitting the summit in 45:20. Made it back down just in time for the last conference call of the day - nice afternoon.
4/6 Fri: 4 mi (:31) Twin Lakes - Another mellow short run
4/7 Sat: 20 mi (3:53, 4,500') - Spring Brook/Goshawk/Mesa - For being the second 20-miler of the season, I must say I felt strong throughout and could have definitely pushed it a bit harder. The cool temps made things easy early on. Can't wait to stack some more miles onto the long run.
------------
Weekly Totals:
Miles: 40
Vert: 8,810'
Time: 7hrs, 36mins
This was the first week that felt like real training. Over the next six weeks, the goal is to get a couple more Green Mountain runs in each week along with 25 to 28-mile mountain runs preceding the Dirty Thirty. Some more heat acclimation is also definitely in order.
