Yaktrax fit to the bottom of the shoes and provide great grip on the snow and ice. So all my sessions happened this week although I didn't quite manage the speeds that were planned for the two faster sessions. So to compromise I ran the slower sessions slightly faster and the faster sessions slightly slower. Total mileage this week was just over 32 miles. As I mentioned last week this was a 'cut back' week so my long run was only 10 miles.
Needless to say I'm glad to see the back of the snow and the ice. Everything can get back to normal this week.
This week is going to be quite a challenge with two hard fast sessions on Monday and Wednesday and then a long run of 16 miles later in the week. Once again there are five sessions this week with a total mileage of 38 miles.
Next week I'll tell you about the different sessions that make up my training schedule.
In the meantime here's a little bit more about Yaktrax.
