I increased mileage way too much this week. I guess my only excuse is the weather was so nice on Monday and I ran a few extra miles than planned on Saturday. This week is my highest mileage week ever and I only ran 5 days. Two days off seemed to work well. I took off Wed. and didn’t feel recovered Thur. morning but still had a decent run. I took off Fri and was ready for the two back to back long runs. Definitely will taper back the mileage this week or I’m afraid I might be risking injury. My legs are feeling very tired right now. I am planning for the next few weeks to run 58, 55, 50, 37 and then will be running the 3 Days of Syllamo (93 mile stage race) the next week.
