For those of you who are new, this is the 40/40 thread, for people who are over 40 years old who run 40 miles/week or more. We give Free Passes to those who come really close or try really hard...

Here’s what I have for last week’s tally.

Who	Miles	Commentary
Alexander R	59	Staten Island HM
Mike	51.6	Love those CC kids!
DennisLey	50.6	Dayton River CC HM
Pfriese	43.2	Nice week
Holly S	36.2	Freedom’s Run Marathon
Hermosaboy	Free Pass	Recovery week
Subdood	Free Pass	Recovery week

Here is my tentative plan this week. Dental work means I am not allowed to run for 3 weeks after Friday, so I will be on the bike trainer.

Day	Plan	Actual	Commentary
Monday	? miles	4 miles
Tuesday	4-6 miles	4 miles	Recovery pace
Wednesday	4-6 miles	0 miles	Weights and Core
Thursday	0 miles	5 miles	Easy pace
Friday	0 miles		Dental surgery
Saturday	0 miles		50 minutes Core Synergistics
Sunday	0 miles		50 Minutes Shoulders and Arms, 16 minutes Ab Ripper X
Total		13 miles

Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."

Thanks Holly - I'm in. This week is the Detroit Marathon, 2 weekends ago was the Mo Cowbell Marathon. In both events, I am running along side my son to help him get back up to the marathon distance and to help him qualify for the Marathon Maniacs. Kory once ran Columbus Marathon in 3:25 or faster, but he has since joined the working force and drifted away from running.

M - Off

T - 9.5

W - 9.2

T - 9.4

F - BAD HEAD COLD.

S - head cold

S - Detroit Marathon

Total - 54.3

Philippians 4:13.

Thanks, Holly.

Recovering from the half last week.

Today I put on my racing flats, went to the track and

... slowly jogged 8 miles at 12min pace. Oh well.

I thought maybe I will warm up and do some intervals,

but it was a cold day and with both legs hurting pretty

badly decided to just leave it at that
