Easy. Cold. I asked Wetmore what my mileage should be over the winter and he said 75-80/week. He said that being as "youthful" as I am, there is no need to increase mileage too quickly. Over cross, my la.rgest mileage week was 73ish and I was wiped. I never felt like that mileage was too little (in fact I thought it was a bit much at times). I think there is too much emphasis placed on numbers (such as mileage). Some runners can rip it up on 85 a week, while others need 130 (McD does  130/week in singles (even 115 the week of nationals)). That being said, I plan on pushing myself hard. Whatever mileage that takes me to is where I will stay.

Easy run on 4th street. It is snowy so running routes are limited.

We ran 4th street again today. Although we have run this route almost every day this week, I don't really feel too sick of it. I guess thats good.

Today was an easy 8.5 up 4th street. It is supposed to snow again tonight, so tommorrows run may be an adventure.

Today was a good run, a bit better than the days past (although it was still snowing). Felt good!
