This week was 65 miles of running, 9 "miles" of pool-running, and ~1000 yards of swimming -- training log is here.
I've now been off of the Lexapro for 3 weeks (which is how long I was on it) and I feel like my old self again, which is a great feeling. Saturday's long run was a good confidence boost, especially given the fact that I (intentionally) did it on tired legs.
I'm now 4 weeks out from Houston, and so I'm going to start pulling back slightly on the mileage while increasing the intensity over the next few weeks.
Monday: 9 "miles" pool-running and streaming yoga. Foam rolling in evening.
Tuesday: Upperbody weights/core and 7.5 miles trail running (10:26). Foam rolling in evening.
Wednesday: Streaming yoga and 11 miles very easy (9:27) including some grass running, plus strides. Foam rolling in evening.
Thursday: 10 miles, including 8 Iwo Jima hills (alternating 2:00-2:50 of uphill running with 30-40 second downhill stride). Followed with leg strengthwork and 500 yards recovery swimming. Foam rolling in evening.
Friday: 11 miles very easy (9:41) including some grass running, plus drills and strides. Streaming yoga and foam rolling in the evening.
Saturday: 17.5 miles, with 2x5 miles at marathon effort with 1 mile float in between.

Followed with injury prevention work and 500 meters recovery swimming. Foam rolling in afternoon.
