Running

After a month of racing in October, I took the first week of November pretty easy. I intended to take the second week of November pretty easy too, but I ended up running 50 miles with 9,000 feet of climbing. I suck at the offseason.

I took the week of Thanksgiving off work, but our internet connection was out the entire week, so I spent some time running in the mountains. Most weeks I do about 7,000-8,000 feet of climbing. There was a week in June when I did 9,900 feet of climbing, and two weeks in July where I had 9,500 feet of climbing. The week in November I took off work and had no internet service I ran 21,000 feet of climbing over 68 miles (with a rest day that comes out to 3,500 feet per day). Each day I kept expecting to feel dead tired and not be able to move, but I actually felt stronger each day and the running got easier as the week progressed.
