Seriously, I haven't posted in a while because I have been doing much of nothing most of November. November is typically my post season recovery month. After the 50k that's pretty much what I did-just ez running whatever I felt like doing. I just head out onto the trails and go as far as I feel like doing. If I felt like 18k, ran 18k, if I felt like 30, I did 30, if I felt like 15, I did 15, if I felt like screwing off and counting squirrels and ducks along the way....well....heck some days I showed up with an old loaf of bread for the ducks! I needed a good rest after what's been a long, but very successful season. I actually only did one itty bitty race in November and it was within less than 24 hours of flying back to Moscow on te 3rd of Nov and 7 days off the 50k-the opener of the winter 2 mile xc series that was moved to the paved path on the island in the rowing channel where I ran the spring half in May 2011. Jet lagged and zombified, I finished just over 12 in windy snain for the win.
WET and COLD!
I actually wanted to see if/how my body races after long haul flights on short notice because I really think this will be my biggest issue when heading to the 100k Worlds in Korea next yr. After this stunt, I was off to play in the woods for the rest of the month, but not without collecting my medal for winning the summer xc series first:
