Another fine month has come and gone. Another month when we all shared in each other's accomplishments, stories, hardships, joys, new puppies, injuries, and, oh yeah, running! Time for that end-of month ritual known as the Boomer miles thread! Post your May mileage total, and list any PRs for races, longest run, highest monthly total, or whatever new milestone you've reached. Remember, a mile is a terrible thing to waste!

Enjoy the gift! You guys are the best!

Thanks for doing this again WildChild. 113.4 miles in May. Ugh. The lowest monthly total since December 2005. 887.8 miles year-to-date 2008. Bill

Thanks, Carolyn. I was going to offer to do the tally, but I'll be away Thursday and Friday with the kiddos and at the shore next weekend. BEAUTIFUL pic. Is that where you run? Wow, I'd never want to leave, even though it is rather far from the ocean. Wink

May - monthly PR at 78.1 - hooray for custom orthotics YTD - 292.5 miles - just 1.6 shy of my mileage for ALL of 2005 (started in March '05) single training run PR - 9 miles last Sunday - and hopefully again tomorrow, but it'll be JUNE, one of my two favorite four-letter words (the other is JULY!!) Big grin

Still askeerd of racing. Hope to face that fear again on Friday. Shocked

Also, 3 glorious outings in the kayak. Cool
