Training - 06/25/12 - 07/01/12

6.26 miles on this final taper week leading up to Saturday's North Fork 50 Mile Trail Race. I'm feeling good about my taper and my nutrition this week.

Monday, June 25 - 0 Miles - Rest day.

Tuesday, June 26 - 4.09 miles, 10:44 pace, 151 HR.

Wednesday, June 27 - 0 Miles - Rest day.

Thursday, June 28 - 2.17 miles, 10:16 pace, 143 HR.

Friday, June 29 - 0 miles - Rest day.

Saturday, June 30 - Race!

Sunday, July 1 - 0 miles - Recovery.

Nutrition - I was a good boy all week. Stuck to my nutrition plan. I wasn't able to get a final weigh-in before the race but suspect I was about 156 lbs. The final two days before the race I tried to maximize my my carb input and tried to keep fiber and protein to a minimum. Saturday's pre-race nutrition was quinoa and brown rice 2 hours pre-race with a banana a 1/2 hour later. That worked well.
