    Week one complete: 64.6 miles!

    Actually 70.8 for the full 7-day week. I ran 19.65 yesterday and 10 today. Starting to really get to peak mileage as I train for a fast half in November.

    Great mileage!

    With my ultra finished, I'm going to take about 3 weeks off completely. There's a 5K to benefit a former coworker who is battling breast cancer on the 26th and I'm probably going to do that, plus a couple of runs beforehand to loosen up.

    November is going to be the first half you've ever done? You're doing serious mileage then! I think I was only doing 30-40 my first one. :)

    Not my first half, I'm just looking to run a fast one, lol!

    I'm trying to qualify for guaranteed entry to the New York marathon, and in my age group, the time to beat is 1:25.

    Whew, Dave. That's a relief. :) But that's a pretty impressive goal, so keep training like you are!! :-) You'll get there.

    Late posting as ever!

    6Oct 13.1
    9Oct ->3.2
    12Oct -> 5.9

    MTD -> 22.2

    The 13.1 was the London Royal Parks half marathon. Enjoyable run on a beautiful sunny morning. I missed by target time, although I did run a personal best (2:03:47), so not all bad

    Congratulations!

    I think my calves are finally recovered from last weekend's hilly Ragnar. I bow down to those of you who run serious hills regularly - the gentle slopes around my house that my friends complain about may as well be flat!

    Hahaha. Depends on which one you do and which legs you get! That's the beauty of it - it can be pretty chill or pretty killer, depending on your experience and training. I think I'm addicted to relays.
