Week two recap - Week two was a successful week with a significant amount of stimulus applied to my body. I am looking forward to future gains. Tuesday's run finished as a 5-mile shakeout run with me warming up for 2 miles, running 1 mile at tempo, finishing the last 2 miles as a cool down. Thursday's run completed as planned with me running 8 miles at Northshore Trails running the first 4 miles at recovery effort and finishing the last 4 miles increasing effort. Saturday I ran a planned 18-mile training race on a technical mountain trail at an easy 100 ultra effort. I decided to take Sunday off as a recovery because of additional soreness from Saturday's race. I have learned over time to recover when needed as it is more important to make sure next week's and months training stay successful. I finished the week with 31 miles total and 26 of the 31 on trails.
