Had a pretty good week of training, although I am still not up to 40 miles/week. The most positive thing for me is that I am feeling better mentally. it’s such a huge part of the “game”. I know that if i am mentally not well, then i’m gonna suffer.
Weather was a bit cooler which was very welcomed! I’m getting massages every other week and that has been an enormous help too. Coach/I switched up my schedule a bit for the next 2 weeks to try to get in some longer runs earlier in the week so we’ll see how that goes. Here’s what i did this past week:
June 17: 5.25 miles/tempo run/1-2min intervals/treadmill
June 18: 5 miles/51:38/10:20 pace
June 19: 4 miles
June 21: 6 miles/1:01/10:10 pace
June 22: 12.25 miles/2:05:30/10:15 pace/HILLS
Total = 32.5

Are you signing up for JFK again? I’m still on the fence, but leaning towards doing it again. My other option is the North Face Endurance in SFO in December. Race entries open July 1!
