Easy: 9 Miles in Golden Gate Park

I finished the week just shy of my total distance goal, but was spot on with my track workout and long run. I typically run 2 "up" weeks then a "down" week, meaning increasing the distance and intensity 2 weeks in a row and then scaling back for a week to let my body adjust and recover. This week was my 3rd up week in a row and I could feel that I was max'ing out. Next week will definitely be a down week.
