Afternoon:  Coach J routine

Evening:  14.63 miles w/ a few faster miles to finish off the end of the run.  Just planning to keep this week full of easy running to let my body absorb the race from Sat.  I might do some mp training in my long run this weekend depending on how my body handles the 30% mileage increase.  So far the body is doing really well with easy running, no muscle soreness.
