Best Week 71 Miles

Here is my workout for my 71 mile week 10 runs on 6 days with one mountain bike ride in there. M easy 6.8 N 1.5 mile warm up - Track 1200,1200,800,400, 1mile cd M 6.3 easy N 3.78 easy M 7.5 N warm up 1.5, 1 mile 300 surges, 1.5 cool down M 4.6 easy N 2 mile wo , 1m, .75 cool down M 4.6 easy M 20 miles, .25 cd In retrospect, serious mountain biking takes its toll on the body. I guess I was just trying to see how far I could take all this fitness. I think on peak distance week next cycle I will go 7 days on 11 - 12 runs and cut out the mountain biking, the 400 and 800 of my speed work and focus on getting a wee bit more mileage on my legs. I felt great during this week, but am sure I could build up to it a little better. The week before I travelled 2200 miles and had my lightest mileage week, but at the same time cramped up in the car, slept and ate differently and fought my way through the North Carolina humidity and a 30k. Better planning next year.
