Yet to be determined

This week:

I still suck, but at least for now I am on the road back to where I need to be. This week I'm hoping to get back over 35 miles and if all goes very well I might be able to sneak back over 40. My long-term plan is to get 2 more weeks of aerobic work in and then test my fitness with a time-trial. Then a step-back week and, based on the results of the time trial I will adjust my training. Here's hoping everything goes well!

Last Week:

Total Miles: 33, Long Run: 8 miles
Well its a start. My first full week of training in quite a while is in the books. All I can say is that my foot is better, my legs are starting to respond and I hope to keep progressing from here.
