Overall this week felt solid. This is my first week of training consistently since Hawk 50 Mile at the beginning of September. During September and October I had weeks with good training but work and life got in the way at times.

Easy runs were right in the 135-140 average heart rate zone with average paces in the 9:15-9:30 per mile average. This is starting to stabilize back to pre-Hawk paces and efforts so recover and some rebuild is taking hold.

Base effort was also in the normal range with the one base run at 8:27/mile with an average heart rate of 150.

Intervals were 3x 10 minutes with 5 min jog between at LT2. Paces for the intervals were roughly 7:30 for the uphill and 7:00 for the downhill. Average elevation for the intervals was about 6800'.

I believe that I should bounce back quickly and fall back in line with previous paces and efforts. From there I hope to continue to build toward a nice Spring 100km race in 2026. Along the way I hope to move my average weekly volume from ~50 mpw to around ~75 mpw. I also had fair but not great consistency in the last build, I hope to tighten up the weekly volume moving forward.
