    @Remus42 Working 12hr nights is awful, but I have to say this for you. I'm really impressed at how you still ran & did strength training, plus you found time to go hiking with friends & go ice skating. You set a great example for all of us who think we're to busy to be active.

    Best of Luck & Have FUN to all of our Turkey racers out there!

    Whether you're celebrating a holiday with friends & family or tomorrow is just another Thursday, may you be blessed with a perfect moment of peace & contentment for which you can be truly grateful.

    Today is day 20 without a rest day, 150 miles total, and have not jeopardized my training paces/workouts. Nailed my last race of the season and I'm very satisfied.

    5 mile turkey trot in 31:24 (6:17 pace), beat my goal by 36 seconds, and racked up an unofficial 5K PR of 19:07. Doing an easy recovery run tonight for +3mi.

    195mi done - 20mi/3 days remaining.

    Was able to slip out after making breakfast and before I start dinner. Knocked out out 4 miles to get over the goal after being just short yesterday. )And to feel better about the apple pie and ice cream I'm looking forward to tonight.)

    11/3 - 3 miles
    11/4 - 3.4 miles
    11/7 - 3.75 miles
    11/11 - 3 miles (went on vacation, did lots of walking, but only ran once)
    11/17 - 3.2 miles. 32 and snowy - what a welcome home from 80 deg orlando!
    11/20 - 3 miles (I'm counting the elliptical because of the 7+ feet of snow)
    11/22 - 3 miles (still buried under 7 feet of snow, gym still closed)
    11/24 - 4.2 miles - Finally back outside! I felt like I could have run forever.
    11/27 - 5 miles - Turkey Trot! Ran the whole thing with no breaks in 54 mins :) There were 12,000 people there, probably could have done better if I didn't have to zig zag. Was a great time!

    Did the annual local turkey trot this morning with the family. Screwed up my corral placement, but beat my time from last year by 10 minutes (as weighing 40lb less helps). Should hit my monthly target with an 8 & 18 mile run again this weekend.

    11/1 - 6 miles (first time I tried some hashing)
    11/2 - 15 miles
    11/4 - 4 miles
    11/5 - 5 miles
    11/6 - 4 miles
    11/9 - 6.1 miles (olympic triathlon @ 8:30 pace)
    11/11 - 4 miles
    11/12 - 8 miles
    11/13 - 4 miles
    11/16 - 13.1 miles (race @ 8:09 pace) + 2 miles (ran back to the hotel)
    11/18 - 5 miles
    11/19 - 8 miles
    11/20 - 5 miles
    11/22 - 8 miles
    11/23 - 18 miles
    11/25 - 4 miles
    11/26 - 8 miles
    11/27 - 3.1 miles (5k turkey trot @ 7:08 pace) + 4 miles (evening run)

    Total: 134 miles
    Goal: 160 miles

    Ugh, totally fell off for a while with the Half (with no next goal in mind) and then the weather. Guess I'll just try to make at least 50 this month.

    Did join a winter running group to make sure I'll have incentive to regularly do the long runs on the weekend.
