Nice runs, Nev. I am swamped with work. I don't know what to do. Crunch time with my first placement. I feel like my fitness is going down the tubes.. going to have to deal with running only 3 times a week hopefully about 10 miles per run :( I am in a sad sad state I do surmise.

HC (or, since you are now a teacher, is it Mr. Commando...): I feel your pain regarding being swamped. I took last week completely off from running; not one step. Sometimes life gets in the way. Don't let it get you down; to the contrary, if viewed in the correct light, the scarceness of the running can make it that much more enjoyable when you get to run, and you'll be able to get more out of each individual run through the added rest that will allow you to push a little harder and recover more fully between runs. You won't lose much fitness doing this, and when you emerge on the other side of the student-teaching tunnel, you'll be able to sharpen your speed again (if you lose much at all) and be able to up the training and take aim at new and exciting goals (half, full, 50k, 50m, ...who knows...)
