Training log - Week ending 6/7/2020

This week was 65 miles of running -- training log is here.

Belated update for this week, as time got away from me.  Pretty much more of the same, with the only blip being on Sunday when I cut short the marathon pace segment of my long run.  I had planned on doing 6 miles at marathon effort, but I couldn't seem to keep the effort under control - it kept lurching towards tempo effort.  So I shut stuff down rather than dig a hole.

I'm pretty sure some of the issue was that my breathing was a bit off, but I think a lot of it also was dehydration - I carried a water bottle but drained it early and had no way to refill it.  I think that I need to map out my future long runs so that I can top off my water halfway through.
