    Pending how far I run tomorrow, June should come in between 125 and 130 miles. I'm in better shape now than at the start of June so I think I'll set a nominal July goal of 150 miles.

    July Goals:
    Nominal challenge goal, 150 miles
    Real goals: Run Shoreline, manage the expected heat and humidity to finish in good shape, don't worry about being anywhere close to a PR. Build base toward Rochester Marathon. End the month being comfortable running 5 days a week. Live through a month at work when I can only work from home one day a week. (Okay, that last one isn't a running goal; but the newly degraded work at home policy is going to make running a lot of miles less convenient.)

    2016 races:
    January 1, 2016 Resolution Run 7.5 mile (Mendon, NY) finished in 53:58
    January 9, 2016 Winter Warrior Half Marathon (Gates, NY) finished in 1:30:59
    March 12, 2016 Johnny's Runnin' of the Green 5 mile (Rochester, NY) finished in 32:32
    March 26, 2016 Spring Forward Distance Run 15K (Mendon, NY) finished in 1:05:24
    April 18, 2016 Boston Marathon (Hopkinton, MA) finished in 3:23:01
    April 24, 2016 Flower City Challenge Half Marathon (Rochester, NY) finished in 1:36:50, targeting MP
    May 15, 2016 Highland Hospital Lilac Run 10K (Rochester, NY) DNS - injury
    June 19, 2016 Medved 5K to Cure ALS (Rochester, NY) DNS - recovering from face plant
    July 16, 2016 Shoreline Half Marathon (Hamlin, NY)

    I met my goal of 40 miles last month, and I need to add miles to my runs so I think 50 miles is a reasonable goal. If I do 4 runs a week, 2 of them 3 milers and 2 of them 5 milers and a small cushion for life and a cut back week should put me closer to 60 miles but I want to stay conservative so I don't re-injure myself.

    Races :
    6/11 Run and Ride 5K Cedar Point - Done
    7/10 Debbie Hudacko 5 mile ?
    10/8 Outdoor Trail Series 5 mile #1
    11/5 Outdoor Trail Series 5 mile #2
    12/3 Outdoor Trail Series 5 mile #3
    12/11 Santa Hustle Half Marathon Cedar Point

    If i do 3 runs a week at 5km per run that will be 60km. Also my goal is to run the whole 5km without walking by the end of the month.
