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
Perch	68	I think…
Holly	57	Holiday let me get in a few extra miles
C-R	55.6	And building
Hermosaboy	50.6	I was wondering, this is low mileage for you
IBleedUnionBlue	41	Hot is right
MikeE	40.1	New job, working it in
Slo_Hand	38.4	Back on the bus!
Runnerclay	Free Pass	Rehabbing knee

Here’s my tentative plan for the week.

Day	Plan	Actual	Commentary
Monday	0-3 miles	0 miles	Weights and core
Tuesday	4-6 miles	5.1 miles	Easy pace, lots of hills
Wednesday	4-6 miles	5 miles	Easy pace
Thursday	4-6 miles	6 miles	Intervals fartlek
Friday	0-3 miles	4.1 miles	Easy pace, plus weights and core
Saturday	13-16 miles	13 miles	Wave Run, plus weights and core
Sunday	4-7 miles	7 miles	Easy pace
Total		40.2 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."

44 miles this week. I believe that is a high for this year for weekly milage.

Philippians 4:13.
