100+/wk.

In the heat of Ironman training, when I was running 50 miles per week, cycling 250 miles per week, and swimming 6 miles per week, I never remember being as run-down as I am now. The month of March kicked off the beginning of 100+ mile weeks strung back-to-back. This most recent 7 days, I've put in 110.2 miles in 13 hours and 4 minutes. This means my average mile is a 7:07. Too bad I can't maintain this over a 100 Mile Trail run. Speaking of that...I have entered the San Diego 100 Mile Run. It will take place in the mountains in eastern San Diego County. That race is definitely a motivating factor for me as I struggle to log over 100 miles per week.

In addition to the San Diego race, I'm planning on racing the Brew 2 Brew race from Kansas City to Lawrence in 2 weeks. The course is 43.5 miles of pavement, gravel, and trail that leads me back to my alma mater. Expect the results in a few weeks.
