Was nice to sleep in a bit this morning until a little past 6:30 and then head over to Salem Lake for a couple lake loops for the scheduled 14-15. 40 and cold but not all that bad out there, very overcast. Put on some tunes and did the loop the reverse of how I went last week just keeping the pace easy knowing I've put some miles on the legs this week. There's a switchback near the end that was uphill last time that is pretty glorious to go down.

Couldn't open a Clif Gu halfway so just went with water and Gatorade at this point. Met up with Emily H. who was about to start her first of 3 loops. We headed out and the company made the miles fly by on the second loop. Sun came out for a bit too which was really nice. Near the end for me I was struggling but kept my mouth shut from the whining I wanted to do knowing she had 2 more loops around the lake to go. Finished up and evened it out at 14.5 to end up with 51 for the week. She went on her next loop and I was done.

51 miles is my biggest mileage week ever to date and it was tough but in a way that was manageable. I'm going to make the most of the rest of today and tomorrow by relaxing and enjoying my Sunday rest day before getting back to it Monday. Have a great weekend everyone.
