Day 238 I am a bit sleepy so I will try to make this quick. I feel if I don’t write something, I might never get to it. This weekend is everything I want it to be. I totally exhausted myself. I did a 50K on Saturday (the full report will hopefully available some day).… Continue reading bit of everything

Day 231 This starts getting fun and I’m looking forward writing it. This would be my fifth week. I have 15 more weeks before my Laurel Highlands race. Total: 56-58 miles Monday: rest. I didn’t want to rest because the week before I only did 9 miles* (plus 20+ miles of hiking), so I had… Continue reading weekly run summary

Day 225 I ran 56 miles last week Monday: usually rest day, I rested Tuesday: 4-ish miles with the group. I showed up in three layer shirt and did not realize it was 60 (15 C). Hot night.

Day 222 It felt good to be able to do long runs. I ran the same routes as in previous weekend. Many thoughts passed through my head. What gave me hard time while running two miles last July, now seemed like nothing at all. I was amazed after running even 16 miles and did not… Continue reading running summary
Should be back in shape
Day 221 I should be back in shape. Not yet at peak condition but should be ready to tackle some hard training this weekend and the next few weekends. I have not put together a solid plan. Actually I prepared one while I was still in Chile in December, but since coming back with 5-6… Continue reading Should be back in shape
Lazy weekend
Day 195 I had a lazy weekend. I did a small 9 miles hike up to Old Rag on Saturday. It took whole day but it was not because the hike was hard but because we had to wait at several times before we could ascend in the crowded section. We might have lost couple… Continue reading Lazy weekend

Day 181 Though I don’t have much to say, this weekend instead of running the High Bridge Ultra (50k) I will be heading south and west for a backpacking trip. I will probably the last one until Patagonia. I will be packing tonight once I get home. I have a bit of running to do… Continue reading game on
week7
day 173 I lost track of whether last week was week 7 or 6. It was probably week7. There are about 7 weeks till my 50 miler. I have not trained much last couple of weeks. Running a marathon takes more than a day to recover. I would say maybe even a week. During the… Continue reading week7

Day 171 Guilty pleasure – icecream The weekend wasn’t as intense as I had anticipated. My training fizzled out due to my own undoing. I ran on Friday, but my quad wasn’t healing properly and pain shot out after about 8 or 10 miles. I was going to do 20. Any way, I started the… Continue reading captain log
