Mostly a maintenance week, with a couple of good speed workouts thrown in. I'm going to try to keep the mileage in the 50-60 zone for the next couple of weeks in a bid to shake out any remaining fatigue from the first half of '09, and then plan to focus on building some top-end speed (while the track is still fun) before beginning to ramp the mileage back up in August/September.
