I think there’s a couple ways to approach a down week. Significantly drop the mileage but keep a speed workout. Drop the miles by about 20-30 percent and drop your quick runs. Both are good options for recovery IMO.
I try to take special notice when I have a tail wind every run so that I don’t get discouraged but for the last month and a half, the wind has been relentless.
Had several workouts and two races that were significantly impacted because we can’t get a break in the weather up here.
Garmin said that half had 15mph NW wind; figured that cost me at least a minute or two.
Anyhow, enough of my petty bitchin. That Strava group is really starting to kick some arse. If it gets big enough we may have to put on our own event.

Sorry to hear that on the weather. We’ve had a pretty mild winter so far so most runs haven’t been impacted. There’s only one day that I looked outside and it was 35 and driving rain and went to bed instead.
If I’m ever in any of your neck of the woods, I’d love to get together.
I’m honestly surprised I’m the only Texan runner in the group. We have enough LSU transplants here that I’d thought we’d have one in there.
