__NOTOC__
This is not the log of each workout I do, but rather a higher level summary of what's happening with my training overall. For a detailed log, I use [[SportTracks]] and publish to [[Dailymile]] at http://www.dailymile.com/people/JonathanS.
==July 2014==July was all about [[2014 Badwater 135| Badwater]], and my mileage was much lower due to the taper and recovery. If you exclude the race itself, I actually only ran 252 miles in July, which is remarkably low for me. That said, both the taper and recovery went remarkably well, as did the race itself. I'm also around 3,000 miles so far for 2014, and to my surprise, my rolling 12 month total is over 5000 miles. I'm not sure at this point how I will structure my training; should I continue with running frequently, or revert back to running four times per week? Initially I felt the more frequent running was helping me control my body weight, but now I'm less convinced.{| class="wikitable"| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|'''Miles'''| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|'''Hours'''| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|'''Avg Pace'''| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|'''Num Runs'''| align="center" style="background:#f0f0f0;"|'''Longest'''|-| July 2014||387||78||12:03||46||135|-| June 2014||446||67||9:00||58||21|-| July 2013||381||66||10:23||20||50|}
==June 2014==
June has been all about training for Badwater 135 in July. Not only have I been building the mileage up, I've been doing a lot of [[Heat Acclimation Training]], [[Intermittent Hypoxic Exposure| Altitude Training]] (with my [[DIY_Altitude_Training| DIY System]]), and plenty of [[Downhill Running]]. It's been a remarkably tough month as these stresses have combined, but I hope they will put me in a good position for Badwater.
