4/23-4/29

Monday 4/23 - 0 miles - Hamstrings very sore after the Mount 40. Rest days are always fun.

Tuesday 4/24 - 0 miles - Hamstrings still very sore. Lots of school work and Lab TA work to do so I didn't mind taking the day off again.

Wednesday 4/25 - 1 miles - Felt great waking up in the morning, very little hamstring soreness it seemed... Upon heading out the door to run I noticed that was not the case and I yet still somehow had persistent soreness. I didn't want to run through it an risk hurting something else so I called it a day after a mile.

Thursday 4/25 - 4 miles - Easy out and back to Keysville Rd. Felt good to be running again.

Friday 4/27 - 4.5 miles - Ran from Manor up to Thurmonk Rock Overlook. Felt smooth and strong and slight soreness in the hamstrings wasn't a problem. Some "locals" were having a campfire/party of sorts at the top of the mountain.

Saturday 4/28 - 7 miles - I spent most of the weekend running the Brunswick Aid station for the modified CAT-100 (or rather the flat-CAT). Managed to get in a run from Brunswick on the canal out to the base of the Weverton climb and back.

Start of the CAT-100


Sunday 4/29 - 4.5 miles - Busy day with the Honors Convocation and an Eagle Scout CoH to attend but managed to get out to the Manor for a quick up and down to Thurmont Rock Overlook.

Total: 21 miles

This was a good week. Despite not getting in a whole lot of miles I felt pretty good the whole time. Summer is right around the corner and I am looking forward to having plenty of time to run. I also think I will sign up for the Capon Valley 50K to get in a second "long training run" in preparation for the Catoctin 50K.
