    I have a trip planned in August (during week three of half marathon tx) so I'm only going to say 65 miles. If I can get a few days running on vacay I'll let you know if I need my target increased.

    So glad to see that people returning for anohter month, it will be inspring - my goal will be a 100, but many of those miles will be cross training on an ARC because something happened to my right foot about 2 weeks ago - My left foot's achilles just heeled and then something happend to my right foot --- GRRR.

    I guess dealing with injuries is just part of a runners life. Going for a second opinion tomorrow. As I mentioned - I will still go on the ARC but it is not as fun as doing the 'real' thang. Can't wait to go on the road again, even if the temperature is still steaming. :smile:

    I'll keep my August goal at 75 miles for August... and strive to achieve it. It's so dang hot and humid down here in FL, it's hard for me to get my runs in!! Most of my runs lately have been short -- 3-5 miles!
