Total 111 miles

I was very tired at the beginning of this week because of the 16 mile tempo I did on March 30. I skipped the Tuesday hill workout, felt OK on the Thursday tempo, but extremely good on Saturday's Charlie Speeding workout. Spedding is a fun fartlek workout which I've done in the past and is usually a good indication of my fitness and I'm glad it went well. I the next 2 weeks I will start to cut down on the volume intensity. I will try to keep things steady while allowing myself to recover very quick.
