PM: 16.5 miles (3:23:00) 3400' vertical High Lonesome Loop counter-clockwise. I had planned on doing 2 loops so I took the first loop easy. Both of my knees were bugging me quite a bit at the end of the first lap so I decided to call it a day.

I still have some trepidation regarding my training. This week I got 94 miles and about 9 hours of time above 9000'. So I feel like my training so far has the right volume, the right vertical, and a decent amount of time at elevation. It is lacking a 'long' run (30-40 miles). This week I did a decent job of getting 3 runs in a row around 3 hours. I've been thinking about what will be the best plan from here on out to Leadville. I really want to make it to the starting line un-injured and the issue with my knees from Sunday has me a bit nervous. I might take this week a bit easy at the start so I can feel healthy for a long run Saturday.
