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
HermosaBoy	77.5	Nice week
Alexander R	58.9	Heckofa weekend!
MikeE	58	Looks like the team is really working you hard
RunnerKSA	43.7	Welcome!
Pfriese	37.4	Close enough
Holly S	Free Pass	Recovery week
SubDood	Free Pass	Recovery week

Here is my tentative plan.

Day	Plan	Actual	Commentary
Monday	4-6 miles	0 miles	Recovery pace
Tuesday	? miles	0 miles	Swimming or weights
Wednesday	4-5 miles	0 miles	Easy pace
Thursday	4-5 miles	6.2 miles	Easy pace
Friday	0 miles	5.6 miles	Swimming, weights and core
Saturday	5-7 miles	12.1 miles	Easy pace
Sunday	12-16 miles	10.8 miles	Long run
Total		34.7 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."
