Monday: 8 miles (9:16). Started Brixx at 5 PM.
Tuesday: 3 miles (8:44), 2 miles (8:39), 2.25 miles (9:11), 1 mile (8:37). Easy 3 in the morning, then in the late afternoon I started with a 2 mile warmup, 8 x 10-12s Hill Blasts with 1/4 mile jog in-between and then a 1 mile cool down.
Wednesday: 3 miles (8:55), 7 miles (8:03), 1 mile (10:40), 4 miles (8:46). Morning workout - 3 mile warmup, 3@7:40, 1/2 slow, 2@7:30, 1/2 slow, 1@7:15. I did well to hit all of the tempo miles with the last mile at 7:12. Tough workout.

Friday: 3 miles (8:58), 4.13 miles (9:28), 2.4 miles (9:18). 3 Mile warm up, 8 x (400m uphill @ 5K effort, 400m downhill SLOW, 2.4 mile cool down.
Saturday: 8 miles (8:58). In the rain.
Sunday: 23 miles (8:56). Longest training run ever. Ran this like a progression with a fast finish for miles 20-22 (8:01, 8:15, 8:16) and a cool down for mile 23.
Total Miles: 81 miles. A really solid week of training for my 3rd straight week of 80+ miles. Finished with a good confidence builder on Sunday with a 23 mile run in not the best of conditions with it starting around 68 and humid and finishing around 77 degrees. I feel like the marathon gas tank is there, but there is still 4 weeks of some solid training with Berlin being 6 weeks out.
