Total Distance

10.00

Crappy week for miles. I got ten in on this one with my sister-in-law from Indiana along with Smooth, Karen, Maynard, Beca, and David. Did I miss anyone? It started off real cold on the thermometer but it didn't feel that cold and by the end it was beautiful.

I haven't had time to run. After family time and work there has been nothing left. This next week doesn't look any better. I don't know where to find the time either. I can't drop either of the other two this next week so I suppose it will be another sparse week. Maybe I'll shoot for 25 for the week starting on Wednesday.

Asics 1140 Miles: 10.00

25 would be a GREAT goal! Go for it. Hope your week is going well.

That sucks about being 13 short of 2011. What rotten luck. I hope you get better soon.

I've been trying to build up to a 40 mile base to run over the winter and I hope these two weeks don't set me back too much.

Life comes first! It is a pain sometimes, but what do ya do?

Be careful on those long runs....you don't want to get injured by putting all of your miles in together. I know it is hard when you are a busy dad to get those runs in! I hope you can find some time for yourself and get your runs in the is week!

Thanks Steam8. I missed a run again yesterday because I was just wiped out. I'm burning the candle at both ends. I was considering adding some extra miles on Saturday to make up for those I've missed over the last two weeks. But I think you're right. An injury will set me back more than a week with a few missed runs.

Give yourself a break! I always feel crazy if I get too busy to get my miles in.....but, giving yourself a week or two off will be good for your body to heal up and you will still be in great shape when you have time to start back up again!
