Monday 5/14 - 0 miles - Rest. Bruise on vastus medialis seemed to flare up after the Sunday trail run.
Tuesday 5/15 - 3 miles - Did the 3 mile Cambridge farm loop out through Briarcrest.
Wednesday 5/16 - 5 miles - Standard Jefferson loop out through Roundtree.
Thursday 5/17 - 9 miles - C&O Canal from Brunswick out to the AT, up to Weverton Cliffs and back. Didn't push very hard on the climb to Weveron, and forced myself to do some hiking. Wanted to be relatively fresh for the Capon Valley 50K on Saturday.
Friday 5/17 - 0 miles - Rest day. I wanted to make sure the bruise was fully healed as well as some other nagging issues going into the Capon Valley 50k the following day.
Saturday 5/18 - 30 miles - Capon Valley 50k in Yellow Spring WV today. I placed 4th overall in a time of 4:34:57. The course was apparently short but I did not wear my GPS so I can't confirm. Full race report here. Overall it was a great race on a beautiful course and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Total: 47 miles
This was a great week, starting with some solid training runs on their own and culminating with a fantastic time at the Capon Valley 50k. I start my internship next week so I will be very close to the Seneca Creek Greenway trail, where I hope to to most of my summer training.
