Quad Rock training week 16

Week 16 is over. It's six days to Quad Rock. 10 hours, 11 minutes all training 18 miles running 2,385 ft D+ running I did a small set of hard running intervals, some steady running, and one last hilly run on the Quad Rock course with a friend on Friday. We pushed the pace on the upper half of the first climb, going up Towers Trail, and I was just a few seconds off my personal bests on those segments. 10/10 effort on Saturday won't be sustainable, but it was fun and a useful check on my fitness before the race. I'll completely recover from that by the end of the week, no problem. Week 17, race week, will be so easy that I expect to go a little stir crazy. A winter storm is arriving tomorrow, so I'll be inside, running on a treadmill and sitting in a sauna, until Thursday. I'm curious to see how much snow we get, whether it's going to stick on the mountains through race day, and how muddy it will be.
