Big Training Week Last Week

Here's what last week looked like:

The biggest number for that week was the 26.4 miles of running. A normal / good week for me is usually 23.x miles. I think I've only been at 25 miles or more twice this year, and once was last week. TC 10 Mile training is ramping up!!

In workouts that I've posted about, you can see my decent run of 2x10 minute efforts that was Monday, my OK speed workout up north that was Friday (and it was LONGER which really added to the week), and then just a basic hilly bike ride that was Saturday to cap off the decent week.

I missed / skipped Thursday's upper body workout because we were gone, and the hotel we stayed in just had a bike, elliptical, treadmill, and 3 sets of SUPER light weight dumbbells on the white plastic shelf under the broken TV:

Also my Wednesday and Friday "legs and core" workouts weren't as great as normal. It was a weird week. But I still got in about 21.5 hours of training (slightly below "average," but still not "bad"), and my run total was HIGH!
