Thanks Neil! In a way, I was foolish for pushing so hard. My shins were smarting me after running many more miles than what I should have run last week (at least I was smart enough to break up my runs over different times during the day). Even yesterday's Christmas run, even at 3 miles, was a little bit of a challenge. Despite, how addicted I am to this stuff, I will be resting my dogs for the rest of the week! Smile

WTG, Alex! Next year my goal is to hit 1500 by the end of the year. I just crossed the 1300 threshold sometime yesterday, so 200 more shouldn't be a terrible stretch if I'm training for a marathon in '08. Enjoy the much needed and deserved rest! Smile
