82.7 miles!
That's the biggest weekly mileage I've ever done, and during the hottest week of the year too! It was tough though, particularly after the hill session on Thursday: I was very tired on Friday and Saturday. I recovered for the Sunday run though and didn't feel too bad despite the high humidity.
I have another week of living the pro athlete lifestyle, with some big training sessions planned, and then a return to work and perhaps slightly less full-on training!
