Those are Aspen trees, aren't they Carolyn? Beautiful picture! Woo-hoo! First one in this month and no worries about posting after one of the 200+ runners

123.3 for October

1248..6 YTD

I cherry-picked a 10k Spooky Sprint last Saturday and finished 2nd in my AG (out of 4 women). But! They did stop breaking down the age groups after 60 and had all of us in a 60 and over. Seeing as how I'm almost halfway through the 60's, I'm a happy camper with 2nd.

Thanks for keeping totals Carolyn!

I got in 39 miles this month, not much but a bit more than the six I had in September.  I think my knee is getting better and I hope to do a half marathon in November and to qualify for the USATF Masters Marathon next year.

39 is not a prime but that is rounding. My actual distance was 38.9 miles.  Again not a prime number but I am only off by a factor of ten. If we just ignore the decimal point it will look like a prime.

October running 68.5

One Race Tufts 10K

Not my usual volume of cycling, only 4 rides for 99.3 miles

Thanks, Carolyn!

Wow, just luck to post after Hermosaboy... I don't even have half his miles! But that is a helluva lot of miles, congrats on the new PR, Rob!

174.9 miles for me, the most since June! I didn't run today and even though it was nice day I needed the day off. Got a 2nd in AG at the Hartford Marathon on October 8. Kinda funny, it's my fourth second in four marathons this year. I'm in a rut!

thanks wild-one.
Great time of year to be running in the high Rockies.

Tetsujin (October 2016) - 72.93 miles
YTD - 435.03

With 73 miles, October more than doubled the last two months,

making up for a skimpy 20 miles in August and only 16 miles in September

when I was up in GS-land engaging in some epic hikes, . . .

with lingering shin scars, knee scabs and a permanent

fishhook in my leg to prove it.

ps - do you get any sense of dread this time of year

for the inevitably-coming, impending freeze-up?
pps - have phun in phoenix whatever you get to do or don't do

ppps - with 30.03 miles in my favorite Carkeek 12-hour Fun Run

this year, yep, I'm countin' to the hundreths. .

The heck with 1/2 of Hermosaboy's miles--I didn't even make it to a tenth!  27.7 miles for the month.  An improvemnt over Sept., but that's about all I can say.  Travel in the first half and DW's knee in the second half was the conspiracy that kept me down this time.

100.8 miles .Prime number was within  sight but the body would not go out the door.

3 marathons in 3 days .Actually 82.7 miles. Ran 7 days in the month.

I was thinking 103 but 101 would have done the trick
