Phew...no wonder I feel so wiped-out. Tongue

The next couple of months should be even higher (barring injury, illness, etc.)...Zoomy's on fi-yah! Big grin

Well then you should have no trouble making 2000 miles this year.

Throw some water on those flames and go run another couple of miles.

Well done.

Nah, that'll be next year's goal. Right now I'm shooting for 1800. Marathon taper/recovery will kill my mileage for a month+.

I have to run 8.1 miles today for my first 200 mile month as well! I don't plan on increasing much beyond this for a while, though. I've been pretty wiped out lately.

Suhweet.

Yes, I do "run in this." So should you. The weather is never as bad as it seems from behind your office or car window.

Hmmm...I'm not really sure. But it's beer, and probably not a bad one. I'm sure I'd drink it and like it. Big grin

If it is, then she hates Becks. Any beer placed on Zoomy's avatar is destined for "discontinuation."

Nice job, Zoomy!

I was going to ask why there was no Oberon in that avatar but now I get it.

Heh, I've always been serious, but in the past had to deal with high humidity, heat, icy roads, and/or injury. This training cycle I've been lucky to avoid all of 'em. *knocks on wood*
