This coming up week is the slow start into my taper, I am only shooting for over 50 miles total for the week. Ashley and I are also running the Wild West Relay on 8/1-8/2 and that should be a blast. I will try and have a race report and pictures up next week on it. That will be my last real hard effort until Leadville.
Have a great week and thanks for reading.
