Easy warm morning up Mueller and back. First trail run in the Challenger and I am liking it so far. Hoping to run it on Saturday for 25. If it performs well on that, it will likely be the shoe I decide to race in.

Realized this morning that if everything goes as planned this week, I will run the most miles I ever have in one week and I will run the most miles in one month. In April 2013 I ran a 90.75 mile week and finished that month at 356. For me, it is even more relevant because nearly all my miles right now are in the mountains, which is requiring a substantial more time than road miles. Last week was by far the most training hours I have put in at 15 hours.

It seems like your preparation is going really well. Lots of time in the mountains. 15 hours of running in 6 days is no joke!

Thanks Jake. I feel like it is coming together. The next two days will be a good test to see where I am at and what I can do for a few more weeks before tapering off for the grand adventure.
