I had been feeling something coming on for awhile. I think running at noon two times this week pushed me over the edge. It was easily 100*+ for both runs. I ended up getting a sore throat Wednesday and nearly lost my voice Sunday. I am feeling a lot better today and will get back to my building mileage this week. I'm just going to consider this a down week before the 4-week push you mentioned last week.

Hope all is well with you.

  1. I was going over your previous 8weeks training, and I think you may need something a little different. I think you might need a 4 week micro-cycle to spark your next set of training.

    Su- off
