1500 Miles So Go Run

123

How many on The Bubble are making it past the Bunny! (Read 607 times)

    As of today, it looks like I'm 20 miles behind.

     

    I am so nailing this not-going-to-make-it strategy.

     

    That's not the "Can Do" attitude that we need.

     

    If you don't make the 1500 miles I'm removing you from my christmas card list.

      That's OK. I'm thinking of converting to Spaghetti Monsterism. (or is it Monsterity?)

       

      MTA: google says pastafarianism. But further research also shows that I don't think I can really get down with it.

       

      I suppose I will have to start working now for that Christmas card.

      Speed my steps along your path, according to your will.

        Its going to closer than I thought.  Back in Nov thought was a shoe in, but pretty beat up after Rocket City and now have been pretty sick the last few days.

         

        A whopping 3 miles this week has me down to a 9 mile lead over the bunny  Have two weeks to get 50.4 miles, which normally two 25 mile weeks would be a walk in the park. but seems like a lot right now.

        Imminent Catastrophe

          I know how you feel Buckeye, I'm having a lot of trouble getting any kind of miles in. Today was absolutely horrible-but I did get in a slow, stiff, sore, miserable 6-miler. I SO wanted to quit. Still feeling Rocket City but I usually bounce back quicker. Only 26 miles to go but I'm traveling a lot so it might be tough. It'll  be right down to the wire.

                      Well, I made it. 6.8 today put me over 1500 for the year, 100 for the month, and a personal record for most miles in a year. Pretty good considering I wasn't sure about making 2000 km at one point.

                      TIme for some rest.

                        Good job Perfesser!  For a brief moment I thought I might catch you.  Glad you fought through the injuries.

                          I have 23 miles and 5 days so should make it, even if I have to run a double on new years!

                           

                          Been good for only 4 - 5 miles at a pop ... legs are good, but the post marathin cold/flu has still some lingering effects but think pulling out of it.

                            WTG Perfesser. Buckeye - nut up. Would Woody kick a field goal on fourth and goal at the two? No way. Punch it in.
