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."

41 miles total, easy week. Ran about 15 miles of a marathon, then walked/jogged the rest. But hey, I crossed the finish line
Philippians 4:13.

Thanks Holly!
Not sure I will hit 40 this week? Recovery from the half on Saturday and a little minor surgery yesterday might make it tough.
Was able to sneak in 40.

Minor surgery? Rest up! Healing is more important.
Thank you, Holly!

Another 100% outdoor week here. Not only that, it was all on trails, with weekend miles on real trails (not Central park style super-wide and manicured "trails"), some of them fairly technical. Tripped and almost fell a few times today. Rocks, roots, leaves, everything. Including even 16 minute miles
Nothing major -- just some stuff that @rtravers would recommend...
Just a bit short again this week Holly.
