7 with 3 x 6 minutes at HM-ish pace. I reached my goal mileage for the year, guess that means I can take the rest of the year off.

Last night's run was warm, humid, and muggy and I sweated out 18 pounds. This morning's bike ride was cold and windy and my feet and ears got numb. New England! Eating two grocery store sushi rolls now. A dragon tuna thing and a spicy tuna.

Ha. I just checked, and apparently I did that very thing yesterday. I'm with you, this running shit is stupid.

I did not have a 2016 goal mileage, therefore I took it easy all year! Not really, but it's nice to know that I could have.
Well in fairness, I have not actually reached my actual goal mileage, just my "2016 in 2016" goal mileage. I did sort of have A, B, & C mileage goals; this was my C.
I like to run around 2100 miles when healthy, but that usually includes a traditional MRT cycle where I have a few weeks in the 60s, and a lot in the mid 50s. It looks like I should reach 2000 for the year, which when it's all said and done, is more than acceptable.
Yea, my goal probably was a little soft for the game, but I did it based on what I thought I could consistently run most weeks.
Cool. Our kids visited, but neither thought it was for them.
I think it's that kind of place. Either you love it or not right away.
For the game, I budget some injury downtime. Because it's more likely than not to happen, and I'd rather be conservative & avoid letting down my teammates. (Not that a whole lot of people in this game seem to GAF about that.) But I've been lucky so far this year.
C goal = 2300
B goal = 2500
A goal = 2800
On pace for A, but we'll see. Sort of entering the year-end doldrums with no major race or training cycle on the near-term horizon.
Former Bad Ass
Did LRB survive his run?
Waiting for Jack Reacher 2 to start. It is only 81F outside and just saw someone running in capris and a long sleeve. sMH.

From the Internet.
I ran 8ish and ran them all too fast. I'm bad at recovery. To be fair, I was running with my club and talking - not just willfully running too hard on my own.
Are we there, yet?
I wish I could say the same, but I ran 8ish all too slow. I couldn't run fast today when I tried.

I took a nap like a mother fucker.
I haven't seen Kevin Hart's new flick or Jack Reacher. Looks like I'm slipping.
Michigan is tapping dat ass like a drill press in a machine shop (sorry DavePIllini). I think Imma head out to Qdoba for their chimmy chang wang-wang booty bang quesadilla.
Today's game may make Michigan's 78-0 victory over Rutgers look like a squeaker. But, the noteworthy factoids:
- First time ever two Super Bowl coaches face each other in an NCAA game, Jim Harbaugh vs. Lovie Smith.
- Making his first start for the Illini is sophomore QB Jeff George, Jr.
