I ran a total of 16 miles in 2:06:45 and it was all on a treadmill, which are miles well earned. I was supposed to run the 16 miles in 1:56:00 but had to settle for taking almost 11 minutes longer.
Normally I would have done this run outside, but when I left it look very threatening. While I like the cooler weather, I don't trust people to drive safely in the snow. As it turned out, all it did was threatened and never did much more than rain, which would have felt nice.
Total miles for the week = 51.2. I haven't run this many miles in one week since I was training for an ultra, and this is only a half marathon! I was also not doing much speed work when training for the ultra, focusing more on endurance. So while I do not have the really long runs (33 miles anyone?), I feel this is harder training. I hope it pays off, but either way it is making me a stronger runner.
