I'm taking today off so that my legs will be fresh for the week to come, since I'm upping the ante. I'm shooting for 50+ miles this week, which will probably require one or two double workouts. If I were running solo all week, I'd do 5 x 1600m cruise intervals in the middle of the week and 16+ miles on the weekend. However, a friend invited me to do a track workout on Wednesday evening with the Kezar Road Runners--I don't know what their workout is, but will likely run with them instead of solo cruise intervals. Another friend invited me on a 12 mile run in the San Mateo hills, which would likely preclude a solo 16 miler on the weekend. If I run with him, I'll likely do a second run that day (maybe 8 miles).
Since my mileage is starting to get up there, I need to be more diligent with the post-run routine. Stretching, icing, and The Stick are all more important now. Of course, since I'll be spending more time running, I'll have less time to spend on the post-run routine...a classic runner's dilemma!
