Injury

Quick training update for the week.

My 10 miler on Sunday went fine, despite the fact that my big toe hurt (more on that later.).  I was still running pretty slow, but it was so nice to run outside!  Some parts of the trail I ran on hadn't been cleared yet, but it actually felt good to run on the packed snow.  It was just like running on the dirt trails in AZ again!

This week is supposed to be a lower mileage week - around 18 - 20 miles.  My plan calls for a varied schedule where I run higher mileage for 3 - 4 weeks and then scale back in mileage for a recovery week.  I haven't exactly had a bunch of high mileage weeks, but I decided to keep the recovery week in my plan anyway.
