I'm now officially working with a coach. This is super exciting to me. I knew it was going to take everything I could give to make the training, the logistics and the balancing of family/work life to complete this race in the way that I wanted. Having a coach will help me in multiple ways, but one of them is trusting their training theory and having less day-to-day planning to do. I'll just lookup the workout, and then do it!

The later part of this week was just like that. I looked at the workout and I did it. It was another good week of consistency and I'm keeping up my strength workouts. Actually, I now have a large list of exercises and new routines that will surely make me sore in places I didn't know existed.

Sunday was a little surprise when I woke up to almost 6" of snow on the ground and decided that I didn't want to try to hit 3x20 min @ 7:10-7:25 pace in that beautiful mess. Instead I hit the treadmill and ran probably my longest ever run on that darn thing. At least the views were nice.

Course Map and Profile

Where exactly are we running? Honestly, the course is one of the major draws IMHO. When I heard what Jamil Coury and RD Steve Aderholt cooked up in their introduction video I was immediately interested. This point to point race is going to be epic.
