Increasing Mileage

The North Country 50 Miler is less than two months away.  The team has a solid group going up, not only the 3 running, but also a good pacing crew to help them out.  Jason, Nick, and Tyler are increasing the mileage again, after having a down month or two after the spring marathon season.  Jason is back up to 80-90 miles a week, and says he wants to top out at 110 before the 50.  He has been currently working on speed in the month of June and kept his weekly mileage around 70.  Nick is finally healthy after being out because of his toe, then two weeks after coming back he sprained his ankle. He and Tyler and Jason are running 20 mile long runs again, and will be increasing that till the 50.
