Training Journal 1/28-2/3

Monday, January 28- Sunday, February 3, 2013: Spent another week on Orcas Island helping out for the 50k race/preparations.  I did a lot of my running on the road and taped my ankle really good when I did some trail runs.  Still struggling to get a lot of mileage in with such a heavy work load and not feeling super motivated to get the long runs in.  I'm probably a little burned out from HURT and a tough fall/winter training schedule.
