Last tweaking to training plan

It's 6 weeks out and i'm starting to panic that i haven't got enough good quality running in. So i've added in a couple of extra long runs that i hadn't originally planned. After reading a few things on training for an ultra that you just want to finish, i've decided that the extra time on the feet will be good, and the 10 day 'proper taper' plus 3 easy weeks leading up should be sufficient time for recovery.

Soooo this means i've got 3 HARD weeks ahead of me, with the 3rd one topping out at around 90km. This was my top weekly mileage for the 100km 6 years ago! However i'm hoping to make a much better pace for this 'race'.

Here are my plans for the next 6 weeks.
