__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. Below is a screenshot of my mileage from Dailymile.com that I will update each month.

==December 2013==
December was a good month of solid training. I've changed my running patter to Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, which gives me two sets of back to back days. This has proved harder than I expected, but I believe it is effective.

==November 2013==
My monthly mileage was down from October due to the taper and recovery for the [[2013 Croatan 24 Hour]].
|}
==October 2013==
October was another high mileage month, partly due to some good consistent training and partly because I did another [[Three Phase Taper]]. This time my [[Overload]] week hit 200 miles, including 5 runs of 32 miles. It was tough, but I'm managing to keep things together with some deep [[Massage]]. I'm also trying a different pattern of [[Altitude Training]], using my [[DIY Altitude Training]] system 3-4 days/week, with the remainder off. Unlike my running, I do my altitude training in one block of 3-4 days on, then 3-4 days continuously off. I've also added a histogram of how frequently I run, as people have been asking for more details.

==December 2012==
December had two races ([[2012 Table Rock Ultra|Table Rock]] and [[2012 Freedom Park 24 Hour|Freedom Park]]) so the rest of the month was recovery and/or tapering.
