10 weeks 

Weekly review 

Since I knew I was going to be traveling all day Saturday, I tried to squeeze a lot in 5 days. I ended up running 45 miles,  biking 75 miles and getting in 4 core workouts. The best part is, I felt great at the end of it. I think my slow build up in miles both running and cycling is paying off. 
 

Tomorrow I can sign up for the Jemez Mountain 50 miler I'm planning on doing on my birthday. Hopefully I get in. 
 

I'm not sure what this week will bring as I will not be doing my normal routine since it is spring break. I don't have my bike and there are absolutely no hills here. Probably just a lot of flat running.

I spent the morning and early afternoon running and playing on the beach with my boys. I'm going to give myself 2 miles for that but I'm sure I did more. Then I went on an actual run and logged 8 very flat and very humid miles. 

Registration for the Jemez Mountain 50 opened today and I was able to sign up! I'm very excited for this race.

Another day of running and playing on the beach with my boys (I'll take 2 miles for that.) Then I did 4 easy miles running on the sand right by the water were it is packed hard. 

66 days 

10 mile morning run on the beach. It was super foggy. Then I got in at least 2 miles with all the beach activities with my boys. Unfortunately we were playing soccer and I hurt my groin again. I'll be able to run, it will just hurt. 

65 days 

As expected, my groin really hurt this morning so I kept the pace nice and easy but still got in 10 miles on a really windy and cool day.

Yesterday was a travel day so I didn't get in any exercise. I got up for the Saturday morning group ride this morning though. Not many showed up. It was just Craig and I. He is such a strong climber. Whenever he decides, he turns it up a notch and drops me on the long steep climbs. Luckily he shows me mercy and waits for me. We ended up doing 45 miles with around 2500 feet elevation gain.
