Training summary-Week 6

This past week was the beginning of the second phase in my training, mostly marked by a jump in weekly mileage with the faster pace that I established during week 5. I ran my highest volume ever, at 41 miles, which was broken into 6 days (4 easy runs, 1 speed workout, 1 long run). I think I ran in about 6 different types of conditions: light, dark, overcast, drizzly, warm, and cold. Thinking back to my last training period and throughout this one, I think I have run in almost every type of weather condition that exists, well maybe except for a snowstorm. I have decided that my optimal running conditions are when it is clear skies and a temperature of around 60 degrees.

6 weeks down, 7 to go.
