Notes

85degrees, geez. It actually didn't feel bad as it wasn't humid like the past few days. I was undecided and not liking my route options today, so that's how I ended up with a super hilly recovery day. I'm also unsure of my training right now. I have races more than a month out, so should I get back into a faux base phase for 2 weeks or should I try to stay race sharp for that long?

85 degrees!?! That is insanity. That makes me so appreciative of the 50s that we have been enjoying...

What distances are your upcoming races? Which option makes you feel the best?

Nutmeg

I've got the Governor's XC Race on the 6th (which everyone should do).

Then I have Living History Farms on Nov 19th (which also everyone should do).

Both are about 7 miles.

I will be racing half marathon in Milwaukee on the 6th and hopefully (fingers crossed/knock on wood) I will be in Louisville, KY watching some sic NCAA action!

Did you decide if you are doing base or staying race sharp?

Nutmeg

Not really
