Joined the 100 mile challenge in July. Met and exceeded it by reaching 137 miles with my running.

So in order to push myself a little harder, I have set a goal of 150 miles this month, cullminating in a 10.7 mile trail race on the 31st.

Anybody out there want to join me? Ok, maybe not for the race, but for the running miles?

    My schedule, if do all of runs, is 156. It would be cutting it close, but I can definitely try.

    Technically, yes, it comes out to 5 miles a day, but that doesn't mean that we'll run every day. I won't and I'd technically be still scheduled to hit it.

    That is an average of five miles a day, every day - I rarly run five miles. My weekdays runs are 6-7 miles, my weekend runs are currently at about 9-10, trying to get that up to about 13-14 over the next month and a half.

    I live in the Endurance Capitol of the World, and have begun to be recruited by some of the local ultra runners. For some crazy reason they think I have promise as a distance runner. The fact that I tell them I don't have the desire, hasn"t yet phased them. Maybe they are wearing me down, have to admit I did start wondering if two years would be enough to work up to the Western States 100. <shakes head>

    Wow, glad to see there is interest.

    tickerfactory.com is what I used. It will give you a code that you can cut and paste into your signature settings.

    Guess it is time to make a new one, not that I finished updating last months :-/
