Slower pace and shorter run, 100 miles coming up on Saturday.
Definitely my lowest mileage training leading up to 100 miles. Was supposed to shift gears to running a lot of miles after Big Bear, but that didn't quite happen. Had a good 45k race the week after the (half) marathon, but then things got off track.
First, there was the trip to Raleigh for Thanksgiving - lots of driving, going back and forth between the hotel and Deb's house and then run/walking the Thanksgiving 5k with Charlotte on my shoulders for about half of it. Knee was kind of messed up but fortunately got better once the inflamation went down.
Next up was the trip to Rochester/Buffalo - lots of snow and no cold weather running gear, but overall worth it to finally get Andy to a Bills game after talking about it for a long time and also finally getting to see my good friend Rob who's put up a tremendous fight against a rare disease which he's currently winning, it's been almost 15 years since seeing him, he's always been an inspiration since I've known him in grade school.
And then finally, the week in Mexico, which at least had decent weather (for running) and a safe area to run, so better than nothing.
On the plus side, made it out to the course and did most of a loop, trail is in perfect condition.
