Jan 2021 Week 2 Training 2021 Leadville 100

Week one recap - With me traveling during week one I did not complete my training runs quite as planned. I do feel that week one was a successful training week and here is how it played out. Tuesday's run finished as a 5-mile progression with me finishing the last mile @ 8:06. Thursday's run completed as planned with me running 8 miles at Northshore Trails @ about perceived Marathon effort. I moved the Saturday run forward to Friday because I planned on traveling over the weekend and Friday's run became a recovery run rather than a long run with me jogging 4 miles and walking 1 mile keeping my heart rate below 120 bpm. Saturday I traveled and enjoyed visiting family and friends. Sunday morning I worked in a moderate/easy effort 10k before traveling back home. I did not complete the total miles planned for the week however still feel successful knowing that I will be racing at an 18-mile trail race on a technical course with big climbs this coming weekend.
