230 miles in April with 12k of gain.
Not quite as much volume as last month, but I'm feeling fit. Judging from where my heart rate is in threshold days and easy days, I think I'm as fit as I've been in the last few years. 930 miles in the first third of the year, which is the best I've done since 2017, and the first time I've done decent volume plus quality since college without getting hurt.
I attribute that to a switch toward threshold work with volume with light injections of speed as opposed to the higher intensity speed that I was doing a few years ago.
The two races that are on my radar for June/July are Mt. Evans Ascent and Vail Hill Climb. In August, I'm going to visit my parents in California, so I might take a stab at a sub-17 5k on the track there.
In the fall, maybe the Color Run Half in BV, and then maybe California International Marathon in December?
