__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.
==October 2014==
I had a week’s vacation in early October, visiting California and running in Yosemite and Big Sur. After that, I focused on getting back to my training, putting in plenty of miles. The cooler weather has helped, as well as reducing my weight by a few pounds. My nutrition is attending more towards high carb again, with a focus on fruit. I've also been working to keep my [[Training Monotony]] lower, which has helped.

==September 2014==
In September I got what I believe was a brown recluse spider bite on my wrist, which turned quite nasty. I ended up having to have antibiotics, which compounded the problems by upsetting my digestive system. As a result I decided to take things easy at the Hinson Lake 24 Hour race and cap it to 50 miles. I'm continuing to experiment with running more frequently, but I'm struggling to keep the [[Training Monotony]] low.
