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	74.03	Hills and intervals
MikeE	58	Tempo and intervals
Alexander R	56.5	Manhattan HM!
SubDood	54.8	Indoor triathlon!
Surly Bill	50	Nice week!
PFriese	45	Lots of wind
Holly S	Free Pass	Oral surgery

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

Day	Plan	Actual	Commentary
Monday	? miles	0 miles	Weights and core
Tuesday	4-6 miles	7 miles	Easy pace
Wednesday	4-5 miles	0 miles	Tummy distress
Thursday	4-5 miles	3 miles	Easy pace
Friday	0 miles	4 miles	Plus weights and core
Saturday	5-7 miles	4 miles	Easy pace
Sunday	15-17 miles	12.3 miles	Long Run
Total		32.3 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."
