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
SubDood	74.7	19.2 mile run on TM!
HermosaBoy	66	Winter running in MN – brr!
Alexander R	56.9	Running easy to recover
MikeE	50	Even with the flu
PFriese	45.1	Superbowl running
Holly S	32.1	Life got in the way

Here is my tentative plan. Weather may change it up.

Day	Plan	Actual	Commentary
Monday	0 miles	0 miles	Weights and core
Tuesday	4-6 miles	5 miles	Easy pace
Wednesday	4-5 miles	0 miles	Slept in
Thursday	4-5 miles	5.1 miles	Easy pace
Friday	0 miles	9.3 miles	Plus weights and core
Saturday	5-7 miles	6 miles	Easy pace
Sunday	15-17 miles	14.8 miles	Long Run
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."
