Training Log - Tuesday, December 21, 2010

I went for a short 5 miler this evening around my old favorite running loop around UAHuntsville. The temps were really mild around the mid 50s and I figured I'd enjoy them, especially considering that it was the official start of winter today. I am sure these types of temps won't be around much longer. My favorite running partner Anya is getting ready to run her first half marathon very soon and I figured I'd join her on some of her training runs leading into her big race. I can use the mileage anyway as I am trying to ramp it up leading into my 100 mile trail race in February in Huntsville, Texas. While I have been running ultra races very frequently over the course of the year, my training mileage has not been quite what I'd like it to be. I need to get back into the 50-75 mile per week range much more consistently.
